You can transfer apps to new Android phone after setup with EaseUS MobiMover.

EaseUS MobiMover is considered the simplest way to easily transfer apps from Android to Android. Besides apps, it also helps you move photos, videos, messages, music, contacts, and more between devices with different operating systems, including Android devices, iOS devices, PCs, and Macs. You can transfer everything from one phone to another in a single click.

There are still two limited ways to transfer apps from one Android to another: Samsung's Smart Switch and Android's Backup and Restore feature.

Samsung's Smart Switch enables you to transfer apps and data to new Android phone:

Please note that this method works best for Samsung devices. Some non-Samsung devices may encounter compatibility issues.

• Install and open Smart Switch on both Android devices. Samsung Galaxy users can go to "Settings" > "Smart Switch", and launch the app.
• Accept the permissions and privacy agreements.
• On the previous phone, navigate to "Send data" > "Galaxy/Android" > "Wireless".
• On the new phone, navigate to "Receive Data" > "Galaxy/Android" > "Wireless".
• On the old phone, click "Apps" and the transfer icon to initiate the app transfer process.

Android's Backup and Restore feature enables you to transfer apps and data to new Android phone:

Please note that this way can only back up and restore Google-related apps and data.

Part 1. Back up data on the old Android phone.

• On your old Android phone, go to "Settings" > "System" > "Google".
• Click "Backup" which might appear in the "Advanced" section.
• Toggle on "Backup by Google One" and click "Back up now". Wait for the backup process to finish.

Part 2. Restore data to the new Android phone.

• If you have set up your phone before and haven't restored your data, reset it to its factory settings and set it up over again.
• Power up your new Android phone and follow the on-screen instructions to set it up.
• When you see the "Copy Your Data" option, tap "Next".
• Connect your new Android phone with the same Wi-Fi as your old device.
• Choose a preferred restore option: "A backup from an Android phone" or "A backup from the cloud".
• Log in to the same Google account.
• Select the correct backup option from the list (usually the most recent) and tap "Restore" to transfer the data and settings from your old Android device.
• Select "Apps" on the new Android device to start the transfer.

As you can see, it is rather complicated to transfer apps to a new Android phone after setting up with Samsung's Smart Switch and Android's Backup and Restore feature. So, the best solution herein is to resort to an easy-to-use app and data transfer tool. EaseUS MobiMover spares no effort to help you achieve this goal. You can use it to transfer all or parts of apps to your liking. With just one click, you can enjoy a seamless transfer.
