WhatsApp migration pain in the ass, even with the Move to iOS app. End up just start a new profile.

Really? I helped 2 friends migrate from android to ios some months back - the whatsapp move was painless.

Vivo midranger to ip13.
Samsung s20fe to ip14.

I migrate from S20FE to IP14 Pro
WhatsApp size 85GB

Stuck for 2 days. Then when done, restoring failed.

Can't. I have all my client messages there need to tally to the respective message. It's the reason why I'm running two phones still. If you can show me the solution I'll appreciate it.

Weird. Cabled migration, right? My friend's S20FE had like 60GB of WhatsApp stuff. Took maybe 3 to 5 hours, IIRC.

Edit: Sorry, can't recall if the cabling was phone to phone or both phones were connected to their respective chargers.

Wireless.
