Switching a smartphone is fairly easy in 2021, but the migration of chat history and messages between iOS and Android devices is practically nonexistent in apps like WhatsApp — at least for now.
There are a few apps and services that claim to be able to fully transfer your WhatsApp chats and messages between Android and iOS, but none are officially recognized by the Facebook-owned firm, and the act of migration is actually a violation of their Terms of Service. We’ve seen WhatsApp begin work on a number of features including multi-device support, but thanks to digging by WABetaInfo, it looks like the next big development could make switching from smartphone OS to smartphone OS that bit easier than ever before.
Now this sounds great, but like many things that WABetaInfo has uncovered previously, there is absolutely no guarantee that “official” chat migration will ever be possible between Android and iOS — or vice versa. However, this would make things much easier if you like to switch between Apple’s premier mobile operating system or one of a multitude of Android-powered smartphones.
