Hi, you could use FoneDog Android Data Backup & Restore to transfer the data from LG to iPhone as the LG data backup is saved on PC. However, more convenient, FoneDog Phone Transfer is recommended.

ah, i find it on your website. It says fonedog phone transfer could help directly transfer the data between them. But it only supports 5 data types. Also okay, i will try later.
