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.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . 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 ...

The Chemical Lake

 Spotted Lake or Lake khiluk in Canada is richly concentrated with various minerals. It contains dense deposits of magnesium sulfate, calcium, and sodium sulfates. It also contains high concentrations of eight other minerals and lower amounts of silver and titanium. Most of the water in the lake evaporates over the summer, revealing colorful mineral deposits. Large ‘spots’ on the lake appear and are colored according to the mineral composition and seasonal amount of precipitation. Magnesium sulfate, which crystallizes in the summer, is a major contributor to spot color.  Originally known to the First Nations of the Okanagan Valley (Native American Tribe) as Khiluk, Spotted Lake was for centuries and remains revered as a sacred site thought to provide therapeutic waters. It is the most mineralized lake in the world. Each spot holds a different cure due to the unique chemical content found within each puddle. Lake Khiluk is considered a saline endorheic alkali lake. The Okanag...

Why Artificial Intelligence is important in Future

  Why AI is important :  As per the survey , 84% of businesses are moving towards an AI enabled ecosystem to sustain in the competitive world.Artificial intelligence is impacting the future of virtually every industry and every human being. Artificial intelligence has acted as the main driver of emerging technologies like big data, robotics and IoT, and it will continue to act as a technological innovator for the foreseeable future.  In the long term, an important question is what will happen if the quest for strong AI succeeds and an ecosystem becomes better than humans at all cognitive tasks. As pointed out by I.J.Good in 1965, designing smarter systems is itself a cognitive task. Such a system could potentially undergo recursive self improvement triggering an intelligence explosion leaving human intellect far behind. By inventing revolutionary new technologies such a superintelligence might help us eradicate war , disease and poverty and so the creation of strong AI mi...
