A year ago I did a video on how to move WhatsApp from an iPhone to a Motorola device but the Motorola device didn't have Android 12 so I needed to use a phone with Android 12 in the middle and I use a pixel 3 so I can move to the Motorola one year later I'm going to do the same video but this time the move is going to be directly because on this morola we have Android 12 okay so the first thing we need to do is we need to update both devices.
I'm going to move this WhatsApp with all these chats and this one is the one with most of the conversation we have pictures we have videos we have contacts all kind of file types emojis memojis stickers once we see all this stuff here we're going to consider this transfer successful I want you to do a fresh backup of this WhatsApp on the iPhone go to chats chat back up this end to end encrypted back up make it off make sure it's off okay and back it up all right so once you have the back up what you need to do is on the Android you need to factory reset it how can I factory reset it:
Go to settings system I guess reset options erase all data factory reset erase all data erase all data and they asking erase all data erase all data oh man how many now factory data reset all right guys so now the Motorola is factory reset we're going to set it up really quick searching for Wi-Fi network works I need to log into my Wi-Fi it says copy ups and data next use your old device find your old device cable insert it to the old device connect both devices all right so let's connect both devices if you have the newest iPhone 15 you're going to use USBC but since I'm using the iPhone 12 I'm still using the lighting cable and on the other end I have a USBC so let's connect both devices it says trust this computer trust devices are connected next OK
So you need to log into your Google account I agree getting ready to copy all right that's good okay so here guys you can see on the apps WhatsApp Messenger so I'm going to deselect everything and I'm just going to select WhatsApp Messenger so apps one app selected and I'm going to click copy now we're going to open our camera app on the iPhone and we're going to read this QR code and we're going to click on the link that's going to open the move chat to Android click Start continue on your new phone getting account info Google services set up a pin I'm going to skip this continue set up I'm going to click leave and get reminder it says copy done you can disconnect the cable so looks like we finished copying the data guys so here on the iPhone I can just click cancel cancel transfer and I'm still going to be signing up to Whatsapp OK
So let's click done how to get your cloud data I'm not going to do that turn off IM message getting your phone ready let's stay in touch track phone choose your theme you're all set done okay let's see if we're going to look at this completing setup right zero of 14 applications updates install what's up install pending you know install spending what's up so that's what you need to see guys you can stop the update because you can do that later you know what we want is WhatsApp to be installed not these guys so by closing this you're making the whole process faster right and it says pending so this is the one that we are waiting for the WhatsApp messenger what happen if we click on it ah okay so it's going to be downloaded it's going to be downloaded and then we're going to be able to open it but we cannot open it until it finish downloading you know
Finally is starting to download WhatsApp Messenger installing WhatsApp Messenger it's installed now we're going to open and it says welcome to Whatsapp English agree and continue now the phone number 754 272 0338 okay that's the phone number let's see what happened connecting look at this guys enter this verification code on your new iPhone why are we getting this message instead of getting the text message because this session was open I have a current WhatsApp session open on the iPhone that's why when I request the verification code I got this so we're going to put it 402 222 verification complete now I'm log out off WhatsApp on the iPhone I'm going to continue on the Android...
