Hi all, I want to switch from my Huawei P20 to iPhone XR. I'm looking to transfer all the whatsapp backup from my android to iOS device.

I have very very basic coding and terminal experience on my Macbook Pro so would really appreciate it if someone can do a video tutorial or even just an in-depth basic tutorial as to how we can transfer the files over..

Currently Watoi seems very promising but I have no idea how to even start.

Pleaee assist!!

Thank you so much!

As I had to transfer my data (macOS BigSur, Android 11 to iOS 15.1), I wrote a short overview of the process: (https://github.com/tim25651/WhatsApp2iOS)

I have also written a guide for transferring my data - i used windows and a macOS vm - https://github.com/needs-coffee/Whatsapp-android-to-ios-guide

I'd like to thank you all for taking time and providing instructions for less experienced users. Added links to your guides to the README. 👏👏👏

@residentsummer - Thank YOU for providing this amazing tool :) this process is so much more difficult that it should be i am astounded there still is no easy migration method built into WhatsApp.
