Transfer WhatsApp chats from an Android to Windows Phone

[white_Shadoww]

Heyy guys, so my Lumia 730 was up for repairing at Nokia care which will arrive in 2 days. Till then I was using my old Android phone. Now i'll be moving to 730 soon, but i want all of my WhatsApp chats from Android phone to appear in Windows Phone. Is it possible? I can't lose those chats, those are very important.

Just login with the same number on ur 730. All your data will be there automatically.

Not the ones from android

Not any way to do?

Backup all message to SD card and restore the backup on your 730

Does the backup work from android to windows phone?

Try and see yourself

The format of the backup database files oa different on Android and Windows Phone so it won't work. Nevertheless, you can always give it a try unless it is not harming someone

It sucks why doesn't whatsapp have server back up?

^^ Hopefully Onedrive support backup will be implemented between different OS to faciliate whatsapp convos storage

FYI even WP support say that it's not possible to move conv backup between different OS

Bad idea for onedrive backup.

What'sapp server should save it themself so no more restore.

Or they could rent some server to do that lol

i doubt they'll invest time and money in backups for people.

I thought whatsapp was encrypted? If that's true, you might not be able to transfer between phones at all.

A very simple solution it for WhatsApp to give the “option” of what cloud base Os to safe the back

Any news on that?
I'd like to move my WhatsApp history from WM10 to iOS.

Thanks
