How Transfer Files from Android to iOS

First Step. Before everything else, you have to make sure that your iTunes is up to date. You cannot make this transfer possible without the latest version of iTunes present.

Second Step. Install the software on your computer first and connect both your Android and your iOS with a USB cable. Both are to be securely connected to the computer.

Third Step. Once a message is received by your Android phone, you will be able to see the "back up my data" button without entering any passwords. Do not worry too much about this and just press "OK" and continue to the next step. This may take some time to load if you have enormous amounts of files in your Android.

Fourth Step. Check if files are being read. If not, install a more modified version of WhatsApp on the Android and get your chat history backup. If software cannot detect the iOS, check again if you are using the newest version, then proceed to continue once updated.

The software that transfers WhatsApp Data, Backuptrans

Backuptrans could be useful software to some users, especially when it comes to transferring WhatsApp data to new iOS. People switch phones all the time, and these inconveniences happen pretty often, making it a good idea to keep maybe the software installed just in case you might find further use for it.

IOS is very selective when it comes to data transfer, and this is a common attitude with other Apple products. Apple tends to make its products exclusively compatible only to other Apple products, which can be quite the hassle if you have to shift from Android to iOS. The good thing about this is that if all your devices are Apple, you will not find it hard to transfer files. The downside, however, would be that if you are using a mixture of Android and iOS or shifting from Android to iOS, you will have to rely on other software like Backuptrans to transfer your data. WhatsApp can be quite tricky, but if your files are absolutely critical and need to be transferred, going through the whole process stated earlier would be worth it in the end.
