How to transfer all chats from WhatsApp to another iPhone - in detail?

To transfer all chats from WhatsApp to another iPhone, follow these detailed steps:

  1. Backup Your Chats: First, you need to create a backup of your WhatsApp chats on your old iPhone. Open WhatsApp and go to Settings > Chats > Chat Backup. Tap on Back Up Now and wait for the process to complete. Make sure your phone is connected to Wi-Fi, as this will use a significant amount of data.

  2. Transfer Your SIM Card: If you haven't already, transfer your SIM card from your old iPhone to your new one. This is important because WhatsApp uses your phone number to send and receive messages.

  3. Set Up Your New iPhone: Turn on your new iPhone and follow the setup instructions. When prompted, restore your new iPhone from a backup. If you want to transfer only your WhatsApp chats, choose Don't Transfer Apps & Data during the setup process.

  4. Install WhatsApp: Once your new iPhone is set up, download and install WhatsApp from the App Store. Open the app and follow the prompts to set up your account using the same phone number as on your old iPhone.

  5. Restore Your Chats: After verifying your phone number, you'll be prompted to restore your chats from an iCloud backup. Tap Continue when asked if you want to restore your chats and media from iCloud. The restoration process may take some time, depending on the size of your backup.

  6. Wait for the Transfer to Complete: Once the transfer is complete, you'll see a list of all the chats that were transferred. You can now start using WhatsApp on your new iPhone with all your chat history intact.
