To forward a video file from Telegram to WhatsApp, you will need to follow a series of steps since both platforms do not allow direct sharing between them. Below is a detailed guide on how to achieve this:

  1. Open Telegram and Locate the Video:

    • In the chat window, tap on the 'Attachment' icon (paperclip).
    • Select ‘Gallery’ or ‘Document’. If you chose 'Gallery', navigate to the folder where the Telegram video was saved and select it. If you chose 'Document', browse through your files to locate and select the video file.

  6. Review and Send:

    • After selecting the video, you may have the option to trim or edit the video before sending. Make any necessary adjustments.
    • Tap the ‘Send’ button to forward the video to your selected WhatsApp chat.

By following these steps, you can successfully transfer a video file from Telegram to WhatsApp, despite the lack of direct integration between the two platforms.
