[Q] Move WHATSAPP chats, history, media from Android to iPhone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I need to move or copy an entire backup of whatsapp, including chat history , pictures and voice messages from an old Samsung Galaxy S3 (not rooted) to a new iPhone 5s. Messages is the most important thing though!
I found a program called backuptrans, but it looks shady and I'm not sure if it's legit. And it's expensive.
I also found wazzapmigrator but I think it only does copies from iPhone to Android, and not the other way.
Did anyone successfully copy his/her whatsapp history from Android to iOS?
I don't know much about iPhone or iOS and I'm staying with my Nexus 4, so I'd be very grateful for your help and a solution!
Also, I know xda is primarily an Android forum and I learned everything about rooting, flashing and Android in general here. But to me xda is the most knowledgeable site for things like this so I am asking you guys!
Thank you!

[Q] GSIII Pop Up Play & Direct Call for Whatsapp, Naver LINE and YouTube???

Dear Dev Teams, is there any way that GSIII Pop Up Play be used for YouTube videos rather than just for downloaded videos? Better off, as a separate screen for everything like using VMWare?
Same goes to Direct Call for Whatsapp or Naver LINE? Because SMS isn't very popular, but it would be real cool to have this feature while using the above apps.
Thanks.

Android to iOS Whatsapp Backup Restore?

Hi,
Just Bought the iPhone 5s and now i had to move my Whatsapp From SGS2 to iphone 5s But i have searched alot and came to a conclusion that there is no way i can transfer the whatsapp chats from my SGS2 to the new iPhone5s,,
Please can some one help me if there is some way i can manage to do that?
Can Please Some one Help me out in this case?
Your out of luck. The programs are completely different coding and they are not interchangeable. The only way it would happen is if the app dev added a backup option to their servers and allowed restore from there.

Samsung Devices with Android 4.1 and above have a "Easy mode" For people like your grandmother.

While I'm on a call, I can't use voice search. I used to be able to use voice search

When I call my girlfriend/friends I like to read the news and search things up as we talk. As you can imagine, I prefer using VOICE SEARCH as opposed to TYPING.
Well what do you know... ANDROID made it where if I'm on a phone call, I cannot use my VOICE SEARCH feature. I was always able to do this on my Samsung S8+. I bought a OnePlus 7T and now I am not able to do this.
I was about to return my phone for that reason but when I went to the Verizon store and tested out the new SAMSUNG S20 ULTRA, it's the same thing. It seems the "geniuses" at Google disabled this feature for whatever reason. Please tell me there is a way around this.
I have already deleted and disabled Google Chrome and Google Search widget because I can't watch videos while I'm on a phone call. I've confirmed this is the case with all the recent Android phones out. I found a fix around that though: FIREFOX and FIREFOX SEARCH WIDGET.
I'm losing my mind I am starting to hate Android more and more they keep making our lives more difficult. Please help me before I switch to an Apple device!
My phone info:
OnePlus 7T (model HD1905)
Build:
Oxygen OS 10.0.9.HD65AA
Android Version:

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!

On my note 8 I used to have a problem that irritated me. From time to time google assistant will pop up when I am using speaker phone..
Sometimes it's bixby..
It is very irritating. Then the problem just vanished. Wasn't really paying attention so im not sure which update removed it.
But to me it's nice that it's removed.
You might want to check if siri will work while on the phone before switching camps.

Thank you for the response.
It has nothing to do with the voice search app. it seems when I am on a phone call my microphone is disabled for any type of voice input other than talking on the phone call. It doesn't matter what the app is. This wasn't the case on my Galaxy s8 plus and I have confirmed that this is the case for the new Galaxy s20 as well.
