In addition to these two notable updates, WhatsApp is currently testing a feature that allows users to transfer chat history between iPhones without relying on iCloud. This functionality is particularly beneficial for individuals who have exceeded the free 5GB iCloud storage limit. The process involves registering on WhatsApp with the phone number and scanning a QR code on the new device to complete the transfer. Android users can also look forward to a similar feature that bypasses Google Drive for chat transfers.
While the chat history transfer feature is currently in the beta testing phase and available to a limited number of users, it is expected to roll out to all users in the near future. WhatsApp often incorporates successful beta features into its full-release versions, so these updates may become widely accessible in the coming months.
