Looking for someone App/WhatsApp-savvy

Hi Community,


you are my last hope:


I'm trying to transfer Whatsapp (the chats) from my old phone to a new one, but after signing in on the new phone, only my GROUPS appear on the new phone (not the individual contacts). I transfered the actual WA file from the old to the new phone, the transfer chat option does not work because the old phone is too old - nothing works. I wanted to delete WA from the new phone and re-install but that doesnt seem to work either.


Any ideas?


Thank you very much in advance


Wolfgang

unless you backed up your chats with whatsapp I dont think you can get them back on a new phone.

Hi both, thanks for the reply!!


I have already consulted the FAQ, I am currently trying to Export chats and just send them by email (the rest is not working).


I am backing up every month, but somehow I cannot access the backup on the new phone to reconsititute WA with all the chat history....
