My brother had a android phone it got broke he got an iPhone 6. Had a clash of clans game he wants it on his iPhone, but doesn't want to restart the game. How does he transfer the data to the iPhone? Thanks guys.
 
I don't think there is a universal way. It depends on the individual games, whether it allows the game progress to be backed up somewhere and retrieved with a log in.
 
You can't.

It's like playing games on Xbox, then trying to use the save games on Playstation - won't work.
 
Unless the game have some built in user account you can't. They don't even use the same file s

I do notice that on iPhone it back up the save progress for a few games (per developer choice I guess), where it is not on Android (or at least I haven't encountered it).
 
Can only sync if the game is on its own server like Words With Friends.
