easy transfer of all whatsapp data
If you switch from an iPhone to an Android device, you can connect the device with a USB-C to Lightning cable. Thanks to Android 12, apps on the iPhone – if available – are installed on Android smartphones via Google Play. All SMS, iMessage history, photos, videos, contacts, calendars, etc., are then transferred.
But not only that, but also WhatsApp chat history. According to Google, this was previously impossible due to the end-to-end encryption used by WhatsApp. A corresponding message and a QR code appears on the Android device, which must be scanned with the iPhone to initiate the transfer process for WhatsApp chat history.
“Starting today, you can securely transfer your chat history and reminders from your WhatsApp account on iPhone to Android. We’ve worked closely with the WhatsApp team to develop a number of new features that will help you switch Android to iPhone.” And will be able to make it easier to take WhatsApp history with you,” Google explains.
Google recommends that all user data be protected during this transfer process. No one except the user can access the information and files of WhatsApp. It also ensures that no new messages arrive on the old device during the transfer process.
