Google's iOS app previously supported only Google Pixel-series devices, but now it will support the entire array of Android 12 devices.

"Starting today, support for the Switch to Android app on iOS is rolling out to all Android 12 phones, so you can move over some important information from your iPhone to your new Android seamlessly," said Google in a blog post.
