How to Transfer WhatsApp from Android to iPhone: A Step-by-Step Guide

Switching from an Android device to an iPhone is an exciting upgrade—but it often raises concerns about data migration, especially for apps like WhatsApp. Fortunately, WhatsApp now officially supports chat transfers from Android to iPhone through Apple's "Move to iOS" app. This means you can securely move your messages, photos, videos, and voice notes without relying on third-party tools. However, there are a few critical steps to follow to ensure the transfer is smooth and successful.

To begin, make sure both your Android and iPhone devices are fully charged and connected to Wi-Fi. Download the Move to iOS app on your Android phone and start setting up your new iPhone. During setup, select “Move Data from Android”, then follow the on-screen prompts. Once you reach the transfer screen, you'll be able to choose WhatsApp as one of the data sources. This process transfers your WhatsApp data securely using end-to-end encryption, but it’s important to keep both devices connected and avoid interruptions during the transfer.

While the official method works well for most users, some complex cases—like transferring data to an already-set-up iPhone, or moving large media files—may require professional assistance.
