WhatsApp May Soon Let You Transfer Chat History Between Android and iPhone

WhatsApp is working on users transfer their chat history when migrating to a new phone that is using a different phone number. The new development seems to be an extension of the ability to transfer WhatsApp chat history from one platform to another — from Android to iOS and vice versa — through a Chat History Migration tool, which is currently said to be in testing phase.

WhatsApp is testing an updated Chat History Migration tool that would allow users to transfer their chat history to not just a new device on a different platform but also when the new device has a different phone number. So, for instance, if you are changing your phone number alongside switching from an existing Android phone to a new iPhone, you will be able to transfer your existing WhatsApp chat history to the new device.

WhatsApp currently allows users to change their phone number without losing any chats. It also lets you transfer your chat history if you are switching to a new device and phone number. But in this particular case, the new device should be based on the same platform as your old phone. This means that you will be able to transfer your chat history if you are switching between two iPhone models or two Android phones.

All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...

How did fruits get their names?

There is a variety of fruits in today's world. Each fruit has a name and the names are derived from foreign languages - modern and ancient. Some of these fruits have names that don't go with the fruit also. The name gooseberry has nothing to do with geese. It was originally called gorseberry. 'Gorse' in Saxton (a language spoken by early germanic people) means 'rough'. This fruit grows on a rough or thorny shrub. Just like the gooseberry, the fruit strawberry has no connection with straws. Strawberry is the changed name of 'strayberry'. The strawberry runners stray in all directions and hence the name. Peaches have been around for thousands of years. This fruit made its way to Europe when the Romans were around. The Romans called it 'persicum' meaning 'Persian apples. It was traded by the Persians during that time.  The national fruit of New Zealand kiwi was found in China. In other countries, it was called Chinese goo...
