WhatsApp enables functions that were previously excluded

WhatsApp is gradually being expanded to include new functions that many users have been wanting for years. A feature has now been activated that was previously not considered to be feasible because it involves changing an operating system and taking your own data with you. But there is one detail that you have to pay attention to.

WhatsApp allows data to be transferred between Android and iOS

Update from 08/24/2021: The new function has already been activated in the WhatsApp beta of iOS with version 2.21.160.16. This means that all WhatsApp content can be transferred from an iPhone to an Android cell phone. The new feature will currently activated for testing purposes and is only available in the beta version of iOS. You can use the function if you see the item “Transfer chats to Android” under Chats in the WhatsApp settings (source: WABetaInfo).

Anyone who has previously switched from an Android cell phone to an iPhone or vice versa and wants to take their chats, pictures and videos with them is looking into the tube. Transferring a backup only works if you stick to an Android device or iPhone. That will change shortly. Samsung was honored to announce the new WhatsApp feature at the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. During the presentation of the new folding cell phones, the Taking WhatsApp data with you demonstrated.

The new function will first on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 will be used, which will be launched on August 27, 2021. Samsung naturally wants to ensure that iPhone users can easily switch to a folding cell phone, since Apple does not offer such a futuristic device. Since WhatsApp is one of the most important apps on our phones, it removes another hurdle when switching between operating systems. The function should then be available to all people later.

WhatsApp: data transfer only by cable

Interestingly, the data transfer from WhatsApp will only be possible via cable when switching from iPhone to Android and vice versa. So WhatsApp has not created a new way of pulling a backup from the cloud. You have to connect the Android device to the iPhone with a cable so that personal chats, pictures and videos can be transferred directly. Restoring a backup is not possible. That should be considered before selling your old cell phonewhen you switch.
