Got new phone, is there an easy way to transfer my settings/apps/data?

It's from Android to Android, I will have a look at the Google function thanks

Doesn't Moto have a transfer app? Google and Samsung do, I'd think other top tier makers would as well. That is like THE premiere task that you have to do when you get a new phone.

Not for at least 2 years, out of interest I went looking when I got my G5+

Google's backup of apps/settings is hit or miss, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes you can't even enable it - which I can't even though It has worked on my current phone previously.

The only 100% working method I've found is unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, root it using Magisk or something else, and then install Titanium Backup + Root - something I've done with every Android device I've ever bought.

Unfortunately I use apps that don't work if the phone is rooted.

Is there any other solution?

By the way, I cannot find this Google function?
