Moving WhatsApp chat from Android to iOS

[freiord]

Hi there guys,

today I replaced my OnePlus 3 with the iPhone 7.
While installing WhatsApp I realized it should be deleted first from the Android phone in order to get the verification SMS on the iPhone.

After that I logged in my account, but all the chats went lost.

My question is: since I have all the chat backups on Google Drive, is there a way to restore all the chats from Google Drive backup?

Thank you!

I don't think you can, well you couldn't when I tried last year. Frustrating as I'd lost a fair few conversations on the app.

Although I have not tested these methods since I have never switched from Android to iPhone, these methods may work:
