If you have been using the WhatsApp Business app for a while now, then you can also encounter a similar issue. You might already know that WhatsApp offers a dedicated app for small businesses to showcase their products and engage with their customers. Since your WhatsApp Business account can have a lot of important data, it is recommended to maintain its backup. In this post, I will provide 3 solutions to take WhatsApp Business backup like a pro.

Part 1: Backup WhatsApp Business App Data to iCloud [For iPhone]

Just like the Standard WhatsApp app, the Business application can also be linked to your iCloud account. In this way, you can easily backup WhatsApp Business data to your iCloud account and resort it later on. Since Apple only provides 5 GB of free space on iCloud, you might need to buy more storage to take WhatsApp Business backup. Here are some simple steps you can take to do WhatsApp Business chat backup.

Bonus: Restore the WhatsApp Business Backup

After taking a backup of your WhatsApp Business data, you can also restore it to your iPhone. To do that, you need to reinstall the WhatsApp Business app on it. Also, make sure that your iPhone is connected to the same iCloud account beforehand. Now, when you launch WhatsApp, just enter the same number as before to set up your account. It will automatically detect the presence of a WhatsApp business backup and will let you restore it.
