This new transfer method makes data transfer faster and easier by only requiring users to scan a QR code. So users don't need to back up their information to the cloud, and then download the data to a new phone.

To enable the feature, both devices reportedly need to be on the same Wi-Fi connection. Users then need to access Settings > Chat > Transfer chats on their old phone. A QR code will appear for the new device to scan.

If users are concerned about privacy, the company conveyed that data is only shared between the two devices when the QR code is scanned. Chat transfers are also reportedly fully encrypted.

On the downside, it looks like this feature will only work if both devices share the same operating system. 

So users can only transfer chats from Android to Android or iOS to iOS. If moving from iPhone to Android or Android to iPhone, the WhatsApp help page has instructions that can be followed. The instructions will differ depending on the transfer method. 

Currently, there is no release date for the feature. However, the new tool will be rolled out to beta testers for users with Android and iOS devices.
