Mi Mover
Features:
• Multiple data formats supported: Transfer contacts, messages, photos, music, videos, documents, installed apps, and other data.
• Easy-to-use: Pair two devices using a QR code and start transferring instantly.
• Speed: Connection speed up to 6MB/s, even faster than restoring data from cloud backup.
• No wires, mobile data, or internet required: The new device acts as a Wi-Fi hotspot during the transfer.

It seemed really easy and I followed the steps. In around 40 mins all the sys data and apps were "transferred" from my old phone. Then the new phone's mi mover app has gone into a state of restoring which has been happening for over 5 hours now. I see that my messages and contacts and 3-4 apps from my old phone have been transferred but since the app does not display a percentage of progress, I'm confused as to what's going on. I'm going to leave it overnight and hope for the best.
I tried to move from moto x first generation to Mi Note 3. It started really smooth finished SMS,contact and device settings. It only got stuck just before completing app data and disconnected. Tried multiple times same issue.
Found it misleading with no clear instructions. I could not generate QR code on my old non Xiaomi phone. Reading the reviews of others, can see that many have been struggling to use it. However later found out that I was supposed to scan the QR code on my NEW xiaomi phone. The transfer of sms messages and call logs and contacts worked after that. Have not tried transferring apps yet.
I used this app to transfer data from my old phone mi 4i to new phone mi 5. After its completion I cant find those transferred data in my new phone.. the frustration is the app and 2 phones all belong to mi but still this problem. If anyone can't respond quickly to resolve this issue. I posted this on 17th July 2016.
This aap is a must when one changes his/her phone. Taking all the backup and transferring to the new one is a pain in the a**. Best thing about mover is it simply install all the apps into new phone within minutes. Restoring all the text and call history is just Cherry on the top. Good one Xiaomi! Cheers
It's very good app, but it's only supports Xiaomi phone. Because I have just bought the Samsung note 8 and I've tried to move my information and data to my new Samsung using this app but it doesn't support other devices. So I've used the backup and it was a pain in the a** 🤔. Please this feature to this app in the next update and I'll give it 5 stars.
After running for 4 hours, it got disconnected. Does not resume, instead have to restart all over. Totally a waste of time. Easier to manually back up to OTG drive and move the data. Moved photos no longer sites up in their respective album.
Wanted to migrate from Hisense phone to Redmi 2. Devices got disconnected frequently which was frustrating; apps and data apparently transferred successfully but I couldn't find them on my new phone.
it transfers ALL contacts from Google account as well. I got 17859 contacts. On my phone I had only 127 so then I had to do it my hand.Very poor support. Perhaps because I do not speak Chinese
Doesn't do what it promises. It keeps on telling me to free space in order to transfer to new device. Both my devices are Mi . New one has more storage than the old one. I ended up deleting half my data. Still tells me to free 141MB. Disappointed!!!
Doesn't work on my HTC One M8. Keeps getting stuck halfway at one of the apps. Cancelling takes a long time too.
I tried several times to transfer my contacts to my new mi device but it just doesn't restores the data.
If the app worked completely fine first test run, I never made it worked to transfer all my apps. As many others stating here the app seems to run fine but at the very end of the transfer something get it hung and the complete transfer fails. I roughly lost 10 mins for each try just to end up with a new failure and I tried it many times... Clearing the data, reinstalling the movers on both phones... Ended up by giving up and do the app transfer manually. Thanks xiaomi for having wasted many hours in my life
Doesn't work. Not finding any QR code option under additional settings on Redmi 2 Prime running MIUI 7.
Should allow other devices to receive apps from mi phones as well as should not change hotspot and it's password.
Promises lots, doesn't deliver. Moved files and photos not apps and messages which is what I wanted. I can move photos and files myself. Messages are missing and app status are missing. Disappointing.
Can't transfer from Moto g 2nd gen to Redmi note 4. It's stuck after scanning the QR code and shows connecting
There is no option to create a QR code if one is a recipient. It only wants to scan it. I have tried moving stuff from Redmi note 4 to MIA1 and it's a pain. Please help
It's totally waste app.i bought new Mi A1 mobile. And I am not able to connect it with my Redmi 4 .
So far disappointed. The transfer stops abruptly. Connection terminated on its own. Some 5% data transferred
Moved from Redmi 1s to note3. Nice and hassle free. Best part was that this overwrites something you have already cloned before.
I followed the advice of Henry eko I upgraded from mi note 4 to ni note 5 Pro no issues! New phone sign in mi account and Google account Put sim card with data on in new phone Moved just app data and system settings check that worked and did. Then moved other data in second transfer Mi note 5 Pro working no issues and can see all data. Just didn't give me wallpaper or lock settings but alot easier than any other option I found
If it finishes the transfer it will be great but it really needs a bit of a step by step "what to expect". I had been doing the transfer for about 2.5 hours while it said "syncing" in black text in the centre of the screen, which I thought was normal but it was actually stuck! When working properly it does show the number of files being transferred on both phones so don't get caught like me. If it gets stuck on "syncing" rather restart the app. It doesn't explain that when it creates a wifi hotspot it will switch off wifi on the new phone. I was busy on the phone at the time and this stopped my other restore jobs. Another thing, if the wifi drops it should do what WhatsApp backup does and pause the job while you restore the connection. I landed up having to start all over again when my connection dropped for a split second. I hope I don't land up with duplicate/corrupt data due to having to restart the process. Nice app, just missing some key functions and info in my opinion.
Hi, I want to move my data from redmi note 4 to mi a1. When I install this on mi a1, I am not not getting an option of I am a receipant and not able to generate the qr code to scan from my note 4 to transfer the stuff. Please help
Looks like a half cooked app. Hangs most of the time. You can never complete the transfer
Just hoping it can solve porting data from hongmi 1 to hongmi note 3, but it only could transfer my phone book and nothing else.
The app only allows the transfer by using qr code, which is an issue for me, as the rear camera for my old device is faulty, maybe more options in addition to the qr code could be provided to help transfer the data.
This app is not working properly on mi a1. It's not giving an option to click I m receiver. App opens with barcode scanner. Uninstalling it and going to use shareit
Very handy tool. But need some i improvement. Move all data by default will make the receiver phone unstable. Try this: 1. Sign in to Google and mi account on new phone. 2. Make sure old phone cellular data is disable. Enable wifi but don't connect anywhere. Make sure new phone cellular data is on. 3. Open mi mover and connect both phone. 4. Move only non Google app and non xiaomi app to new phone. 5. Reconnect mi mover and this time move setting data from old phone. 6. Reboot new phone and observed all behavior while using the new phone . If new phone working correctly , continue to move other data (video, images, musics, docs)
