Transfering Android game data to a new phone? [View all]

This discussion thread was locked by steve2470 (a host of the Computer Help and Support group).

My wife is going to be upgrading her phone from a Galaxy S5 to a Galaxy S7 in the next week or so. She's got a couple of games that she wants to continue to play. Neither phone is rooted and she won't allow me to try rooting them so that option is out the window.

Does anyone know of a method to ensure that the new phone will continue her game progress?

I know she signs in through Facebook and someone told me that you should be able to just continue on as soon as you sign into Facebook on the new device but I wanted to check first.
