The exchange of data takes place at cloud—Google Drive. The user has to download the latest version of the Google Drive—version 4.16.1—and enter in using Gmail ID.

Once you enter the drive click on ‘Backup’ under the app’s setting option. Three options will be displayed: Calendar, Photos, and Contacts. The time may vary according to Internet speed and the amount of data.

After selecting the desired option, click the ‘Start Backup’ button. Once the backup is done, go to the Android app, login in with same ID used for iOS backup and there you go. Voila!!! All the selected iOS data will be present on your Android app. Nevertheless, there still is no ‘official method’ of backing up WhatsApp text or chat messages to Android from iOS. This is something to worry about in the future. For now, the main problem has a solution.
