Hi all,

I just bought Samsung Galaxy A8 for my wife and until now she cannot switch to it as all important whatsapp msg is still in iPhone.

Tried to use Samsung Smart Switch apps but only contacts, SMS (30 days old back only transferred vmad.gif ), notes and few other things I cannot remember can be transferred into Android. No luck for Whatsapp and the other apps data. But she dun really mind for the other apps data. Oni concern about Whatsapp data.

I dunno if other TS already raised this matter or not la..but i can oni find this thread..

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2153855/all

The last possible solution's link also broken and this thread is quite old. I do believe there is a solution now..hehe

Also found few article on net..but most of it ask to jail break so that can use iFiles to retrieve the database files from iPhone but the iPhone is using latest iOS version.


So, i really appreciate any helpful advise from you guys..

Thanks in advance..

From android to android is extremly easy, copy the whole whatsapp folder to new phone and whatsapp will automatically restore all chat history and data.
I tried to google and found this, have a try.

Here is a simple tutorial from androidpit: http://www.androidphonesoft.com/resources/...ria-iphone.html

This works for messages, contacts, call logs, music and videos.

The database format is different. Unless you use some sort of paid apps to do the conversion, there's no other way.

If you just miss the photos and videos, then just back up to your pc. Use free tool to look into your iPhone back up and extract all the photos and videos from whatsapp directory.

Transfer data from one phone to another couldn't be easier with a phone transfer program. Simply open it, connect both the phones to your computer and click start transfer. Phone numbers, photos, songs, videos and other media files are moved to your new phone.
