How to Transfer WhatsApp Chats from Android to New iPhone

If you’re changing your mobile from an Android device to an iPhone or vice versa, there are several things that you need to keep in mind. The first thing is you have to transfer your contacts, photos, and other files from your existing device to the new device. WhatsApp is the 3rd most used social media application in 2021 and it’s one of our most frequently used applications on everyone’s mobile. When changing devices, it’s also important to make sure to transfer your WhatsApp data from android to iPhone or iOS to Android device. WhatsApp officially does not provide any method to easily transfer data from one phone to another unless both the devices use the platform. The main reason WhatsApp is not capable of migrating the chat data between the operating systems is because of how the backup works in iOS and Android.

WhatsApp in Android uses Google Drive to back up its data whereas, in iOS, it uses iCloud to back up the data. This makes it impossible to sync WhatsApp data across Android and iOS. Telegram on the other hand backs up the data by itself which makes it easy for multi-device login and syncing across the operating systems.
