How to transfer your WhatsApp chat
history from Android to iPhone
Last year, WhatsApp released a new feature that allows users
to transition from iPhone to Android and keep their chat history.
Starting with the Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3, the feature was
only available on Samsung devices. A few months later, Google announced that
the functionality would be available on all Pixel phones. The feature will be
accessible on all new phones that come with Android 12 out of the box. But how
about moving WhatsApp conversations from Android to iPhone?
WhatsApp chats can be transferred
from Android to iPhone.
Apple has finally listened to your cries and now allows you
to transfer WhatsApp data from an Android handset to an iPhone. You'll either
need a fresh new iPhone that hasn't been set up yet, or you'll need to factory
reset your iPhone in order to do so.
"We're adding to WhatsApp the ability to safely switch
between phones and transfer your conversation history, images, videos, and
voice chats between Android and iPhone while retaining end-to-end
encryption," Mark Zuckerberg wrote on Facebook on Tuesday. This is one of
the most frequently requested features. Last year, we introduced the option to
transition from iPhone to Android, and now we're introducing Android to
iPhone."
Step-by-step instructions
As previously said, this will only work with a brand new
iPhone. On your Android phone, you'll need Android 5 or above, and on your
iPhone, you'll need iOS 15.5 or higher.
The following are the procedures to transfer WhatsApp data
from Android to iOS:
On your Android phone, go to Google Play and download the
Move to iOS app.
Follow the app's steps until you see a code on your iPhone.
On your Android phone, enter the code, select
"Continue," and follow the on-screen instructions.
You'll eventually come to a screen with the words
"Transfer Data" at the top. You have the option of transferring data
from apps like as Messages, Contacts, Calendar, and, most recently, WhatsApp.
Before you select "Continue," make sure you tap WhatsApp. Before you
hit "Continue" at the bottom of the screen, make sure you tap
WhatsApp.
To complete the data transfer process to your iPhone, follow
the remaining prompts.
You can transfer your account information, profile picture,
individual chats, group chats, chat history, media, and preferences if you
follow these instructions. Your display name and call history will be the only
data you lose, but that's a tiny price to pay.
