Why? Samsung phones have already been doing this for years and it makes getting a new device so much easier. All I gotta do is login to my account and everything is transferred over.
Honestly, it works so well that I can just start using the new phone without any extra effort. Literally everything is exactly where I left it on the old phone. It's one of my favorite new features in smartphones.
In the past it used to take me at least two days to set up a new phone the way I like it, and several weeks to months to iron out the kinks and get back logged into everything. Now I can be up and running in under an hour. It's the best thing ever.
Multiple accounts for one thing. Also I don't always want to stay logged in to everything.
Doesn't fucking transfer over everything
