    I dunno. I tried to transition my sister in law’s WhatsApps from her iPhone to Android and it’s as far as I can tell impossible because the backup on the respective cloud services are hidden and can’t be loaded manually.

      It’s all linked. You can access your whatsapp from your phone to your laptop and it transfers place to place. You may have set up a new whatsapp on her new phone rather than just signing in but in that case you can just sign out and into the old one, they’re not gone.

        How do you get the messages to your laptop? My googling only lead to various hacks to enable hidden iCloud folders and copying from there. Anyway I suspect I’m going a bit of topic but the point was it wasn’t as smooth a process as I was expecting from my experience upgrading phones on the same OS.
