Currently, the Android operating system already offers an option to transfer this data via Wifi, or with a cable. But to make things happen faster, the firm could also propose a new method that combines these two options. For the moment, no official announcement has been made done.

In essence, this would have found, in the code of Google's Data Restore Tool app, text that could be used later on Android to present this functionality later. Alternatively, the Android Authority article also indicates that Google could launch a feature called “Restore Anytime” that would allow data to be transferred between Android devices at any time, not just when switching devices. But as usual, this information should be considered with caution, pending an official announcement.
