Apple seems to be opening up its doors for its recycling/trade-in program, if reports are to be believed. According to 9to5Mac, Apple will allow non-Apple users to be part of its trade-in program. It will supposedly allow them to trade in their Android or BlackBerry devices for gift cards that can be used to buy iPhones. If true, the move is obviously to boost iPhone sales.
Apple retail staff are reportedly being trained to transfer contacts from Android or BlackBerry to iOS. But they won’t transfer anything else, so please back up those photos and other precious data you might have on your phones. The program is said to be arriving in the coming weeks.
