Why it matters
The problems this solves
How this feature helps you keep and use your phone data.
-
The history is on your computer
An archive keeps conversations accessible on your computer. This feature lets you transfer WhatsApp data to an iPhone when you want it on a phone again.
-
A readable export is not a phone transfer
PDF, HTML and CSV exports are for reading or processing. Use the dedicated iPhone transfer workflow to move WhatsApp data to the phone.
-
You have several accounts to bring together
Use account merging to combine the stored data first, review the result, and then continue with the separate iPhone transfer workflow.
