On Monday, Google quietly [launched the Switch to Android app](https://techcrunch.com/2022/04/13/google-quietly-launches-its-awaited-switch-to-android-app-on-ios/) on the App Store in a number of global markets, including the U.S. From a report:

_As expected, the app promises to make the transition between mobile platforms easier to manage by helping users import their contacts, calendar, photos, and videos to their new Android phone. The app also instructs users how to turn off Apple’s iMessage in order to get text messages on their new device and has them connect with iCloud to migrate their photo and video library to Android._
