In case of Apple iPhone you have to connect your devices with the wire provided by Sony in the Xperia box or you can even choose to transfer it through WiFi like in android devices.
In case of Android devices WiFi Direct needs to be activated to start the transfer

Note: Data which is present on your device will be transferred and the data synced with online services will not be transferred with this App.
