WhatsApp chat transfers from Android to iPhone coming soon

WhatsApp chat transfer is one of the many annoying things you have to worry about when upgrading your smartphone. This is not really a problem if you are using the same OS. When upgrading from one iPhone to another, you should have no problem backing up all your data. The same goes for Android. However, if you frequently jump from Android to iPhone or vice versa, things start to get more complicated. There are apps that can move most of your data from Android to iPhone or other ways. But WhatsApp chat transfer doesn’t work that way. Thankfully, WhatsApp has started to address this issue. After recently adding support for iPhone-to-Android chat transfer, the company may soon let users transfer all of their conversations from Android to iPhone.
WhatsApp introduced chat transfer from iPhone to Android last year. This feature was initially only available on Galaxy phones. Then, Google’s Pixel phones support WhatsApp chat transfers on iPhones.

Given Facebook’s hostile stance against Apple, it seems logical for Facebook to support the iPhone-to-Android upgrade. We didn’t know at the time when support for chat transfer from Android to iPhone would arrive. But it may arrive sooner than expected.

WABetaInfo released information last week about the new features of WhatsApp inside Android. According to the site, WhatsApp is testing a new version of the app that allows users to transfer chats from Android to iPhone. It’s unclear when the feature will roll out to all Android devices. There isn’t even a WhatsApp beta yet.

However, the WhatsApp blog obtained images explaining how the feature works. To transfer your chat history from Android to iPhone, you must give your phone permission to import chat history.

Additionally, the screen above shows that WhatsApp will notify the user to keep the phone unlocked during the data transfer and bring the app to the foreground.

It’s unclear if Android users will have to use Apple’s Move to iOS in conjunction with the WhatsApp chat transfer tool. The WABetaInfo blog says a migration to iOS may be required.

Moving to iOS doesn’t transfer WhatsApp history like it does now. But it’s an app that lets you transfer a lot of personal data from Android to iPhone.

The inability to easily transfer WhatsApp chat history from one phone to another is a security feature. It ensures that no one else will transfer your WhatsApp account to another phone. Combined with end-to-end encryption, this helps protect your data.

Also, WhatsApp’s encryption may hinder the easy transfer of chats from Android to iPhone and vice versa. This is why you should consider only using the tools provided by WhatsApp to move chat history.

Tom Holland to star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s next, will juggle that with Spider-Man 4 in 2025

Tom Holland, last seen in Apple TV show The Crowded Room last year, has signed his next with Academy Award-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
