Clone Phone is an Oppo proprietary app that comes preinstalled on almost all new Oppo phones.
Developed by Oppo and already available in new models manufactured by the company, the app is available on Play Store and works perfectly on every compatible Android smartphone.
Furthermore, Clone Phone is versatile enough to recognize iOS devices and allows you to import important files and data from iPhones as well. If you plan to switch to Oppo from any other Android smartphone or an iPhone, the Oppo Clone Phone app has your back when it comes to convenient and quick data transfer.
Check the Compatibility of Oppo Clone Phone
If you find any problems when using Oppo Clone Phone, your first troubleshooting step should be to check if the source or destination devices are compatible with the app. Now, if you have initiated the cloning process on one phone, it means that the source device supports the program, and it’s only the other smartphone that you must check for compatibility.
For your convenience, here are a few things that Oppo Clone Phone needs before it can function properly on your phone:
· Platform
Oppo Clone Phone is available on Play Store and App Store which means the app supports both platforms. However, at the time of writing this, you can only migrate from iPhone or other Android phones to Oppo phones.
· iOS Compatibility
Oppo Clone Phone works only on iPhone and iPod touch models running iOS 10.0 or above.
· iPhone Model Compatibility
The app works on all models starting from iPhone 5S through iPhone 14 Pro Max (and running iOS 10.0 or later.).
· Android Compatibility
Clone Phone is not limited to Oppo phones only and can run on almost all smartphones running Android 4.4 or above version.
· Connection
Oppo Clone Phone requires a Wi-Fi connection, and the source and destination phones must be connected to the same network. For some reason, if the connection between the two smartphones cannot be established, you can connect them via a personal hotspot.
In addition, while launching Oppo Clone Phone for the first time, ensure that you allow all the permission that the app prompts you for. You must do this on both source and destination devices for error-free cloning and data transfer.
Another setting that you must check and configure correctly when Oppo Clone phone is not compatible is allowing the app to change system settings on your Android device. The process given below explains how you can do this:
Note: Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is used here for reference and illustrations.
- Long-tap the Oppo Clone Phone icon.
- Tap App info from the context bar that appears.
- Scroll down the App info screen and tap Change system settings.
- On the next window, turn on the Allow permission switch.
- Retry the data transfer process and see if the issue is resolved.
Use a Powerful Tool to Transfer Your Data
After trying the above solution, if you still notice that Oppo Clone Phone is not compatible with your source or destination device, you can try a powerful third-party tool to get the job done. Because such applications are dedicated to these tasks, they perform pretty well and complete the work smoothly.
