    Can someone please help me. I need to transfer 100k text messages from one contact FROM a galaxy s8 TO an Iphone XR. I don't want to lose them from the Galaxy S8, just copy them to the XR. I am pretty good at phone stuff but I get lost when it gets complicated
    Thanks

    Welcome to iPhone Forums!
    Afaik, it‘s not possible to transfer messages from an Android to an iPhone, especially from one contact only. If they‘re not too many, take screenshots and save them somewhere.
