Do not stop platform What’s Up To the surprise of its users, the instant messaging service owned by Meta Platforms is constantly introducing new features.
Perhaps the good news today for millions of users, came by giving them the ability to transfer chat history, photos, videos and voice messages from Android to iPhone through the Apple application called Move to iOS.
But although it was launched as a beta phase starting today, Wednesday, this feature will take about a week to reach all users.
Most Wanted Feature
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, announced in a statement that Meta Corporation added toWhat’s Up The ability to securely switch between phones and transfer chat history, photos, videos, and voice messages between Android and iPhone while maintaining end-to-end encryption.
He also considered that this feature is the most important and most requested. “Last year we launched the ability to switch from iPhone to Android, and now we’ve added the ability to switch from Android to iPhone as well,” he said.
Note, however, that this transfer process only works on new iPhones, or those that have undergone a factory reset.
You also need Android 5 or later via an Android device and iOS 15.5 via an iPhone.
Here are the steps
To start this process, the user has to open the Move to iOS app on the Android phone and follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
Once you follow the instructions, a code displays on your iPhone. Then the user is asked to enter the code via the Android phone. Then, you must click Continue and follow the on-screen instructions.
Then it is supposed to select WhatsApp on the data transfer screen, and then start the process by clicking on “Start with your Android phone”.

Then the user needs to wait for WhatsApp to prepare the export data. Once the data is set up, the Android phone is logged out.
Then he has to tap Next to return to the Move to iOS app. Then, he needs to click Continue to transfer data from your Android phone to your iPhone while waiting for Move to iOS to confirm the transfer is complete.
After that, you should install the latest version of the chat platform from the App Store and then log in using the same phone number that was used on the old device. Then click on start to allow the process to complete!
