WhatsApp Business has just been launched. This second and the newest WhatsApp app is for small business owners who want to communicate with their customers easily and in an interactive way. So technically anyone can now install WhatsApp Business on their android phone along with the regular WhatsApp version. But we recommend that you use a new or a separate number for this new business app. If you have a small business and don't have a budget to build an app for your business then consider WhatsApp Business. After using it you shouldn't be looking for business app development companies.
But most people have a common cell phone number that they use as both for personal and official usage. So it might be a little difficult for them to migrate from the regular WhatsApp to the business version. The only problem here is that most business owners will find it difficult to restore their WhatsApp chat history to WhatsApp Business. However, restoring chats, in this case, is only technical but not impossible.
So, in this tutorial, we will be telling you how you can transfer your WhatsApp chat history to WhatsApp Business app account. This tutorial is only applicable to users who are migrating their existing mobile number to the Business app and are not using a new number. After migrating the chats, the regular WhatsApp on your phone will no longer work. This is because you have migrated your phone number to the WhatsApp Business app.
