Solution 1: Transfer WhatsApp Messages from Android to iPhone via 'Email chat'

1. Open WhatsApp on your Android device, go 'Setting>Chats Setting>Chat History>Email chat'

2. Choose the chat that you would like to have on your iPhone, there will be a pop-up window asking whether to transfer your WhatsApp messages with or without media. Transferring the messages with media will take longer time.

3. Then it will come to the sending page. Provide an email account and click the sending option.

4. Log in the email account on your iPhone, you can then view the WhatsApp messages, but are unable to have the messages on the WhatsApp application of the iPhone.

Solution 2: Transfer WhatsApp Messages from Android to iPhone via Backup

1. Backup your WhatsApp messages on Android cell phone: go 'Setting>Chats>Chat backup', and click 'BACK UP' button.

2. Uninstall WhatsApp on your Android device.

3. Launch WhatsApp on your iPhone device and log in with your original WhatsApp account.

4. There will be a pop-up window informing you that 'Message Backup Found', click 'Restore'. Your Android WhatsApp messages will be transferred to your iPhone.

Transferring WhatsApp messages via backup is more complicated than emailing the messages, however, you can have the chats on the WhatsApp of your new iPhone, which make it easier for you to catch up the conversation on the old Android phone. Therefore, it is worth the trouble to transfer WhatsApp message by backup.
