Those who own and use an Android device will surely have a lot of applications installed on their mobile / tablet. They could be games or apps for managing files or for entertainment. When you buy a new mobile or tablet, always with the Android operating system, many are looking for a way to transfer easily and quickly apps from the old Android device to the new one. It would also be possible to re-download and reinstall all apps from scratch, but that means a lot of time.
In this guide we want to point out two programs that can help you in this operation.
# 1. Transfer Apps with dr.Fone Switch
dr.Fone Switch is a module present in the dr.Fone package, a famous program created to help recover data deleted from the device (iOS or Android) but which now represents a set of functions all useful for managing the data of your mobile phone.

Thank you.
2 questions 1) can only one app be moved? 2) the data saved on a game remain so if I'm at level 26 I restart from level 26 or not
Please answer me
Does it also pass the game data (game saves, points etc ...) of an app?
if it works it's really the best. Thanks
