Quick answer: By downloading the Straight Talk Transfer Wizard app, you can connect your devices to the same Wi-Fi access point, and then start transferring content.

How it works

Download the Straight Talk Transfer Wizard app from Google Play or the App Store.

With Straight Talk Transfer Wizard, moving content from one phone to another is a straightforward process. It’s much less time-consuming than manually typing in each contact’s information, and the app makes it easy to maintain access to all of your accumulated photos, videos, and messages. Here’s how the magic happens:

Begin by downloading the Straight Talk Transfer Wizard app from Google Play (on Android devices) or the App Store (on Apple devices).
Connect both phones you’ll be using to the same Wi-Fi access point. Then, use the phone that will receive the content to scan the QR code appearing on the screen of the phone that will provide the content.
On the phone that will receive the content, choose which content you’d like to be transferred.
Transfer the content and enjoy.

That’s all there is to it. It’s important to note, however, that the content that can be transferred differs based on which operating system your devices use. Apple devices can transfer and receive contacts/contact photos, photos/pictures, and videos, while Android devices can transfer and receive all of the above with the addition of music, text and picture messages, call logs, and documents.
