WhatsApp is a free instant messaging app available on iOS and Android. However, when you change your phone, all conversations will not automatically carry over. And here it is already necessary to make an effort so that all the information is on the new device.
Transferring contacts via Phone Clone
First, you need to transfer all existing contacts from your old phone to your new one. This is not difficult to do. Even if all the contacts are saved not on the SIM card, but on the phone, you just need to download the Phone Clone application, available on iOS and Android, to the smartphone on which these contacts are saved, and then connect to the mobile hotspot of the smartphone on which they need to be transferred.
Next, you need to note what exactly needs to be transferred to the new gadget, and after ten seconds all the information will appear on the new device.
The application contains step-by-step and clear instructions on what steps are necessary for a successful transfer. Neither the beginner nor the experienced user will face obstacles in the process.
Installing the messenger
Oddly enough, then you need to download WhatsApp itself. It is available on Android and iOS. Downloading is also possible from the official website of the developer. Difficulties at this stage should not arise, given that the download to another phone was successful earlier.
Copy messages
After successful installation, you need to launch the application. The program will ask for a phone number to which it will later send an SMS message with a confirmation code that must be entered.
Further, after recognizing the user, the program itself will offer to restore all data. After the announcement, you need to wait 1-2 minutes, and all early conversations and messages will reappear in the messenger.
Transfer from iPhone to Android and vice versa
It is important to make a caveat - copying all conversations and correspondence is possible only between the same platforms. Thus, it is impossible to restore without third-party programs, for example, between iOS and Android. This problem has existed for a long time and will most likely not be solved soon. This is due to the difference between the file systems of these platforms, as well as the difference in file formats.
If the need is great, then the transfer can be made through the MobileTrans program, which is available on Windows. After installation, you need
- Connect both phones to PC via USB cable.
- Wait until the devices are detected and determine the source of the device from which you want to transfer data.
- Next, in the menu, you need to click on "Application data", and on the confirmation request for rooting the phone, click on the "Confirm" icon and then on the move tab.
After agreeing to the rooting requests, sending data will begin. At the end of the process, another confirmation will come with information about its end and that everything has been moved from Android to iPhone. All that remains is to click on "OK" and finish the job.
