Migrating data from an android phone to an iPhone might now be easier than migrating from an android to another. I haven't come across any free, play store app that can seamlessly transfer data between android phones of different makes.

Motorola's devices all come with Motorola Migrate[1], which supports transferring data from both Android, iOS, and some older devices. The times I've used it I was pretty impressed by how smooth they made everything, although I was going Android-Android, I don't know what caveats there are for iOS migrations.

It's surprisingly not too hard. I just set up an ftp server on both phones and copy the data between them from my computer. Or setup the server on one and a client on the other and just go phone to phone directly.
