WhatsApp users can now transfer their chat history between devices on the same operating system in a secure and private manner, according to an announcement made by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. The new feature allows users to preserve their complete chat and media history without having to leave the app. The transfer process is authenticated with a QR code and data is encrypted during transfer. This feature is faster than backing up and restoring chat history and also enables users to transfer large media files and attachments. To transfer chats, users need to ensure both devices are connected to Wi-Fi and have location enabled. They can then go to Settings, Chats, and Chat transfer on their old phone, and scan the QR code shown on the screen with their new phone to complete the process.
