Use Huawei’s Phone Clone app to move selected data from an old Android phone to a Huawei Mate 90. Huawei documents this general Android-to-Huawei process, but does not specifically confirm Phone Clone support on the Mate 90. First check that Phone Clone is available on your handset and offers the receiving-device options described below.

Before you start

  • Charge both phones and keep them close together while transferring.
  • Check that Phone Clone is available on the Mate 90. Open the app, or look under Settings > System & updates > Phone Clone if that menu is present. The Mate 90’s official specifications page does not confirm Phone Clone compatibility: Huawei Mate 90 specifications.
  • On the old phone, check Phone Clone’s AppGallery details for the Android versions it supports. Huawei directs users to the app listing for this compatibility information: Use Phone Clone to Move Data to Your New Device.

Transfer data with Phone Clone

  1. On the Mate 90, open Phone Clone and choose This is the new device.
  2. Choose Other Android if the old phone is a non-Huawei Android device. If the old phone is Huawei, choose Huawei.
  3. On the old phone, install or open Phone Clone as prompted, then choose This is the old device.
  4. Pair the phones by scanning the code shown on the Mate 90 or following the app’s manual connection instructions.
  5. On the old phone, select the data categories the app offers and tap Next > Transfer. The exact button wording can vary by app version.
  6. Wait for the transfer to finish before disconnecting the phones or wiping the old device. Then check the important items on the Mate 90.

Huawei’s documented procedure connects the phones through Phone Clone; it does not require a cable. See Huawei’s Phone Clone instructions for the general steps.

What transfers—and what to check afterward

Huawei gives contacts, calendar items, images and videos as examples of basic data that can be cloned. The categories available depend on the source-and-destination device combination and software. Huawei lists additional categories for Huawei-to-Huawei transfers, but those should not be assumed to apply to a non-Huawei Android source. See Huawei’s data-type and device limitations.

Do not assume that every app, its private data, or account sign-in credentials will move. Review the options actually shown in Phone Clone, then verify your critical information on the Mate 90. If an app or its data is missing, reinstall it or use that app’s own backup and restore process.

If Phone Clone is unavailable or a category is missing

  • If Phone Clone is not available on the Mate 90, the cited Huawei guidance does not establish an alternative Mate 90-specific transfer method. Do not treat the general instructions as confirmation that the app works on this model.
  • If the old phone cannot install or run Phone Clone, check its Android-version compatibility on the AppGallery listing linked above.
  • If a desired category does not appear, Phone Clone is not offering it for that device combination. Use the relevant app’s own backup or export option where available, and verify the result before erasing the old phone.
