Mi Mover for Android

Free phone transfer solution

Mi Mover is Xiaomi’s official utility for moving data between handsets. Originally developed for MIUI devices, it is now compatible with other mobile platforms as well. The tool simplifies migration so you can get a new phone up and running quickly without manual reinstallation.

What it moves

• Videos, photos, and other media
• Installed apps and APK packages
• Text messages and contact lists
• Documents, audio files, and miscellaneous data

How devices connect

To start a transfer, install Mi Mover on both devices and follow the in-app pairing steps. The receiving Xiaomi device typically creates a local Wi‑Fi hotspot to handle the transfer, but you can also establish a connection by scanning a QR code for a direct link—no manual hotspot pairing required.

Speed and convenience

Mi Mover can reach transfer speeds of roughly 6 MB/s, which is often much faster than restoring from cloud backups. Because it copies apps and their associated files directly, you usually won’t need to reinstall applications or redownload data after migration.

App transfer and safety

The app supports moving installed applications alongside media and documents while preserving package files where possible. Transfers are designed to be straightforward and reliable, enabling frequent backups and quick restores whenever you switch phones.
