Google to Improve Android Data Transfer with New Feature

A recent report suggests Google is developing new features to streamline data transfer between Android devices.

According to Neowin, the code found in the latest Data Restore Tool app hints at simultaneous Wi-Fi and cable connections for accelerated transfers.

Google's internal name for this process is "MultiTransportD2dTransport." If implemented, users could potentially see significantly faster data transfer speeds during the setup of a new Android phone.

Here's a relevant code string discovered in the Data Restore Tool:


<string name=”multi_transport_d2d_transport_title”>Speed up data transfer</string>

Additionally, a feature dubbed "Restore Anytime" promises a more flexible data transfer process.

This feature would allow users to migrate data from an old device to a new one without requiring a factory reset on the new phone.

However, limitations exist: transferred data would merge with existing data, potentially overwriting custom settings on the new device.

Important Note: These features were discovered in an APK teardown, indicating they're still in development. There's no guarantee they will become publicly available. 

Currently, Android data transfers can be time-consuming, particularly for users with large amounts of data.

Google's "MultiTransportD2dTransport" aims to address this pain point, offering a faster and more seamless setup experience for new Android phones.
