WhatsApp will soon make it easier to shift between iOS and Android; Here’s how

WhatsApp will make it easier for you to export and import chats between Android and iOS devices in the near future. This will make the process of switching between the two platforms much easier and smoother. At the moment if you are an iOS user and decide to shift to an Android device, it won’t be possible to export and import chat history without having to pay or use third-party apps which is against WhatsApp’s policy.

When you currently switch from iOS devices to Android devices, WhatsApp transfers your account information which includes your display picture, name, about, individual chats, group chats, and settings, but it doesn’t transfer your chat history.
