How to backup and restore WhatsApp conversation information

Author: Sicily Choi

Whether it's closing a deal or handling inquiries, WhatsApp is the go-to platform, often holding a wealth of transactional information. However, unlike other social media apps, WhatsApp doesn't automatically back up your chats in the background due to its end-to-end encryption. If you lose your phone or encounter a malfunction, retrieving your chat history can be quite a hassle. Today, let's talk about how to back up your WhatsApp chat information and restore it if lost.
