Don’t want to use WhatsApp anymore? Now there is a simple way to export your chats seamlessly to Telegram, and the best part is that it will even retain timestamps, so you won’t even notice you’ve switched to a new messaging platform. . Here’s how to start transferring your WhatsApp messages to Telegram.
How to transfer your WhatsApp messages to Telegram
There are a few things to note when exporting chats from WhatsApp to Telegram. First, you can move individual and group chats, but you can only do so one at a time. The second is that the person whose chat you are transferring to Telegram must also have an account set up with the service, as both parties will be able to view the chat once it is transferred. Additionally, you can only import messages into private chats with your contacts.

The ability to transfer chats from WhatsApp to Telegram removes any kind of friction when moving between the two platforms. I moved a few threads to see how it would work, and I’m pleasantly amazed at how well the feature works. The best part is that you can save storage space by deleting your old chats, which makes it a particularly good option if you are using an Android phone under $ 100 and have limited storage.
