How to backup WhatsApp chats from android to iPhone

Unfortunately, it is not possible to directly backup WhatsApp chats from an Android device to an iPhone. This is because WhatsApp data is stored locally on the device and cannot be transferred between different operating systems. However, there are third-party tools available that claim to be able to transfer WhatsApp chats between Android and iPhone devices. It is important to note that using these tools can be risky and may result in data loss or compromise.
