Way 4: Transfer WhatsApp from iPhone to Huawei Mate 40 for Free
WhatsApp does offer a free and workable way to help you export WhatsApp chats, and you can transfer the exported files from an iPhone to an Android with email, messages, or anything else you can access on the Android phone. This feature, however, will only export the WhatsApp chats to log files, which is what you will be reading on the Android phone. You will not be able to sync these WhatsApp chats with the data on your Android device.
And another problem with this method will be the high number of manual actions. You have to export chats one by one, which means that if you have 100 chats to transfer, you’ll need to do it 100 times. It's a terrible thing.
But it is still the only easy, free and trustworthy way to transfer WhatsApp messages from iPhone to Android. Here's how:
Step 1: Open WhatsApp on the iPhone and click on the chat that you want to transfer. Tap the top of the screen and choose "Export Chat" from the list.
Step 2: A popup will appear to notify you that attaching media may generate a larger message. You can choose to export the chats "Without Media" or "Attach Media" according to what you need. If you choose Attach Media, your video/photo messages will be attached to a folder other than the text messages. Normally we will click on the Mail icon to export chats, but you can also choose another app as long as you can access the app on the Android phone.
Step 3: WhatsApp will start processing your data. Type in the email address you want to send the WhatsApp chats to and click "Send".
