When you finally changed your cell phone, it's time to transfer all your information from your old phone to the new one, and although transferring contacts, photos or apps is not very scientific –since everything is in the cloud or the SIM card– , the truth is that with WhatsApp it was not so simple.

We all have that special chat with messages or audios that make our day and to which we return again and again. However, when we want to migrate to a new phone from another operating system, whether it's from iOS to Android or vice versa, the process to keep our conversations is more than complicated.

How to transfer your Whatsapp chats between different operating systems?

During Samsung Unpacked 2021 where they presented the new folding models Galaxy Flip3 and Galaxy Fold3, WhatsApp announced that conversations between operating systems can now be transferred starting first with these models presented by Samsung and eventually the function will be available for other models.

Samsung representatives said during the event:

“If you're upgrading to a flip phone, Smart Switch makes it easy to keep the apps and memories you're used to. And now, that includes your messages. For the first time on any Android smartphone, you can now securely transfer your entire WhatsApp experience, including your ongoing conversations and photos, from your old iPhone to your new Galaxy phone."
