  • As for the iPhone, the option to move WhatsApp chats to Telegram is available with 7.4.1.
  • If you have that base covered, open on WhatsApp for iOS, go to the Contact Info or Group Info page
  • Select ‘Export Chat’, followed by Telegram in the Share menu. You will get the option to export chats with or without media, much like Android

If you select media, it’ll take a while to import chats on the app. So don’t get anxious, if the WhatsApp chats on Telegram don’t appear properly at first. Additionally, the feature is a bit more streamlined on iOS than Android and you can only import chats from WhatsApp to Telegram one at a time.

Whether you move WhatsApp chats to Telegram on Android or iPhone, it will not only move messages to the current day but will also include their original timestamps. All members of the chat on Telegram will see the messages.

“The best part is that the messages and media you move don’t need to occupy extra space,” Telegram said in the blogpost. “Older apps make you store all data on your device but Telegram can take up virtually no space while letting you access all your messages, photos, and videos anytime you need them.” Over a million 100 million new users joined Telegram in January after WhatsApp privacy policy made it mandatory for users to share their metadata and business conversations with its parent company Facebook.
