• Miserable experience and lost my money

  cdpothenFebruary 24, 2015

  Pros

  It detected my phone and obtained all the messages

  Cons

  It didn't transfer the messages onto my iphone.

  Summary

  I had a very miserable experience and I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I paid for the professional license and initially thought it was just 20 dollars but because i am in AUstralia, it made me pay in total over 40$ including some server storage for license option which i could not untick. After that the software showed a couple of errors on both the iphone and the android device. Thankfully the software showed that the way to fix the iphone was to run a separate installer to extract a folder and copy some dlls to the installation folder in program files. Funny thing was the installation was onto a completely different folder in users/app data which i had to figure out. Then it was the turn of the android. First it siaid it was not detecting the android. Then they prompted to turn usb debug mode. I had to unconnect the usb cable to be able to turn this on and then the software had to restart and it showed copying files and after a long time showed another error and then was prompted to fix that using a root software. Then i tried rooting and that worked ie the rooting of the phone. Then the software copied all the whatsapp messages and i can see them on the software and later although it showed the messages were transferred to the iphone,nothing was transferred. I don't know if this was a issue because i also got some messages on the Iphone as well but all in all i was the big loser. I lost my money of 40 dollars and I don't have my old messages on my new iphone. I am so unhappy

• Exactly what it says, wicked fast

  usamaahmadSeptember 20, 2014

  Pros

  This application was fast, easy to use and did I say extremely fast? It was able to backup my entire Android Whatsapp (>30,000 msgs) in a few minutes over USB 2.0. Transferring them to a new iPhone took a little longer but the transfer went smoothly. The application itself may not seem entirely intuitive but the website has instructions (step by step) on how to do this transfer. Best of all, I was using this for the first time on a Saturday morning and emailed support as I was a little confused about why my license key wasn't working. They responded within 10 minutes! And over the course of 3-4 emails we figured out the issue (I downloaded the wrong application, hence the key not working). Excellent support!

  Cons

  I would say splitting up the application to Android to iPhone, and then having a separate application for iPhone to Android (or a higher priced bilateral transfer) is a bit much. I think it would be easier for the developer and user if you download one app and then buy a license key for the specific process you need to do.

  Summary

  If you're moving from iPhone to Android or vice-versa, I highly recommend this app. It is a bit on the expensive side but it does what it promises, and does it fast. The higher cost is offset by the excellent support. I'm considering moving my SMS messages with their SMS transfer app.
