The chat migration feature would allow users to migrate their entire WhatsApp chat history including voice notes, photos and conversations, videos in a seamless manner.

After months of speculations, WhatsApp finally announced that it would roll out the possibility of transferring chat history from iOS to Android and vice versa. The feature was long overdue as users always found it difficult to switch operating systems as moving from Android to iOS or iOS to Android would mean losing all the previous chats. However, not anymore, as WhatsApp has after eons resolved this issue. Now users can move to iOS from Android as freely as they want. People insist on backing up their chat history mostly because of emotional reasons. You may longer be on talking terms with a person now, but you can also always look at the old chats and reminisce about the good old days. Sometimes it is also important to have old chats especially if you are dealing with adversaries, who can manipulate and frame you without records. But if you chat records you can always come out clean. These are some situations and basic reasons why people hold on to their old chats and prefer storing their chat history.
