Method 1: Using Third-Party Software
One of the most reliable and user-friendly methods to transfer your WhatsApp messages is to use third-party software. There are several programs available that are specifically designed to transfer WhatsApp data between Android and iPhone. For example, one popular program is Dr.Fone - WhatsApp Transfer.
