Why it matters

The problems this solves

How this feature helps you keep and use your phone data.

  • Chat history that seems lost across platforms

    A new phone does not automatically include your archived chats. This feature converts backed-up Android WhatsApp data for an iPhone restore.

  • Keep the transfer on your computer

    Transfer from your local WhatsApp archive to a connected iPhone without uploading the backup to a cloud service.

  • Not knowing whether the transfer worked

    A silent transfer gives no confidence that the data arrived. The restore reports its progress and its result step by step.

How it works

How to use it

  1. 1

    Convert the backup

    The WhatsApp data that was backed up from Android is converted into iPhone backup format.

  2. 2

    Connect the iPhone

    The app prompts you to connect the iPhone, and the converted data is written to it with a full-device restore.

  3. 3

    Watch the restore

    Step-by-step progress and results are shown as the restore runs. When the data for the same account is unchanged, the previous conversion output is reused.
