Taking Your Chats with You

Move to iPhone Now Available — NEW, 7.20.22

You can now also transfer your full chat history from Android to iPhone when switching phones and hold onto your WhatsApp chat history.

Move to Android

Your WhatsApp messages belong to you. That’s why your personal WhatsApp messages are protected by end-to-end encryption and why we provide ways to make them automatically disappear from your chats.

One of the most requested features we’ve had is to make it possible to transfer chat history from one operating system to another when switching phones. We’ve been hard at work with operating system and device manufacturers to build it in a secure and reliable way.

We’re excited to start rolling out the ability to move your WhatsApp history from iOS to Android. This happens without your messages being sent to WhatsApp in the process and includes voice messages, photos and videos. This feature is available on Android 12 and above devices.

When you set up a new device, you’ll be provided with the option to securely transfer your chats from your old device to your new one. This process will require a USB-C to Lightning cable. More information can be found here.

This is just a start. We look forward to making this option available for more people to switch between platforms of their choice and securely take their chats with them.
