Apple does not publish sales figures and, as such, we will not know never, exactly, how many iPhones were placed under the Christmas tree. However, thanks to the ranking of the Play Store, the Android application store, we know that this year, Santa Claus converted a significant number of 'Android smartphone users to iOS.

Apple doesn’t offer many Android apps. But among the few apps the company does have for Google’s platform is “Move to iOS.” As its name suggests, it’s an app that Apple designed to help people switch from a competing smartphone to an iPhone. And, according to data from Appfigures, “Move to iOS” is ranked 14th among free Android apps in the United States. In France, it is even in 7th place.
As a reminder, when activating the iPhone, this Apple application for Android facilitates the transfer of photos, but also messages, contacts, calendar, and certain accounts on online platforms.
