# Apple Device Migration

## What it does
You can move iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices to Applivery from your current MDM without wiping them. Devices keep their data, apps, and settings through the switch.

## How it works
Assign the devices to Applivery in Apple Business, set a migration deadline (1 to 90 days, reversible until it arrives), and users finish a short guided enrollment. Applivery also handles Activation Lock: it clears the old lock and applies a new one with its own bypass code, so devices arrive fully under your control.

## Why it helps
Changing providers stops being a disruptive re-provisioning project. It becomes a scheduled, reversible change you can pilot with one team before committing the rest.
