This process simply backing up WhatsApp via Google Drive on the Samsung device and then restore the backup to the Huawei device. Follow these simple steps to do it;

Step 1: On your Samsung device, open WhatsApp and then tap Settings > Chats > Chat Backup > Backup to create a backup of the messages on Google Drive.

Step 2: Now on the Huawei device, sign in to the same Google account used to create the backup

Step 3: Install WhatsApp on the device and proceed to set up the App. Once you have verified the phone number, WhatsApp will detect the Google Drive backup and prompt you to restore the backup.

Step 4: Tap “Restore” and the process will begin. When it is complete, tap “Next” to see the chats on the Huawei device

As reliable as this solution seems, it does have a few shortcomings. They include the following;

  • • You must use the same Google account you used to create the backup and the same phone number
  • • You must also have adequate storage space in Google Drive to make the backup
  • • The backup process can be slow
  • • You will have to uninstall WhatsApp on the Huawei device to use this method

Transfer WhatsApp from Samsung to Huawei with Email Chat

You might also be able to transfer WhatsApp chats from Samsung to Huawei by emailing the chats from one device to another. Yes, this process is as easy as it sounds. All you have to do is attach the WhatsApp chats you want to transfer to an email and then open the email on the Huawei device to download the messages to your device.

Step 2: Choose the WhatsApp chats you would like to email to the new device and when prompted, choose if you would like to send the message “Without Media” or “Attach Media”

Step 3: Enter the email account to send the chats to and tap “Send”

Now, all you have to do is open the email on the Huawei device and download the attached emails. It is however important to note that the chats will only be in TXT format. This means that you will not be able to open them on WhatsApp.

With the above solutions, you can easily transfer WhatsApp from a Samsung device to a Huawei device. Keep in mind that these solutions can be useful even if you have already set up and are using the Huawei device. But in the case of a Google Drive backup, you will have to uninstall WhatsApp to restore the backup and the phone number used to create the backup must be the same one you use for the device.
