Recently, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced a feature on WhatsApp that users have been waiting for a long time. It is now possible to transfer conversation history from Android messaging app to iPhone and vice versa.
According to Zuckerberg, the tool had been in development for a while, however, it is only now being gradually released in the beta version of WhatsApp. It is even expected that all users will have access to it soon.
