For WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business chats

Your chats, on your new phone.

MovTron moves your WhatsApp chats, photos, videos and voice notes from an iPhone to an Android phone. It runs on your own computer, and nothing is uploaded anywhere.

  • No root, no jailbreak
  • Works offline
  • Uses the official app from the Play Store

MovTron is an independent tool. It is not made by, affiliated with or endorsed by WhatsApp or Meta.

How it works

Four steps. The app does most of them.

One screen shows what to do next, with a picture of the phone and the button to tap. It watches both phones and moves on by itself.

Connect both phones

Plug in the iPhone and the Android phone. MovTron finds them and tells you which button to tap.

You: two cables

Review before anything changes

See how many chats, photos and videos will move, and what cannot. Nothing on either phone has changed yet.

MovTron: reads and counts

Transfer

Chats and media are copied to the new phone, with a progress ring and the time left.

MovTron: copies and checks

Verify your number

Enter the number and the code on the new phone, then tap Restore. MovTron fills in the key, and your chats appear.

You: number and code
What moves

An honest list.

Before you start, MovTron shows the exact numbers for your phone. This is what it can and cannot carry today.

Moves to the new phone

  • Text messages one-to-one chats and group chats
  • Photos and documents with their captions
  • Videos and voice notes the ones your iPhone includes in its backup
  • Stickers, GIFs, replies and reactions a reply keeps its link to the original message
  • WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business choose which one on the first screen
  • Chats already on the Android phone optional: keep them and add the iPhone chats

Does not move yet

  • Polls, locations and contact cards
  • Call history, status updates and payment messages
  • Media the iPhone leaves out of its backup often older videos; you are told how many before you start
  • Android to iPhone MovTron works in one direction: iPhone to Android
Why MovTron

Built to be finished by anyone.

No manuals and no long key to type. The app handles the technical parts and shows its work.

One screen, one next step

Every step shows a picture of the phone with the button to tap. The screen changes by itself when you have done it.

It types the long key

The restore step needs a 64-digit key. MovTron opens the app on the phone and fills the key in for you.

It counts what arrived

Files are checked on the phone during the transfer. If you want, a full count compares every message afterwards.

Keeps the Android chats, if you ask

Moving to a phone that already has chats? Choose to keep them, and the iPhone chats are added beside them.

Checks before it changes anything

The old iPhone is only read, never changed. On the Android phone, nothing is replaced until you have seen the review and said yes.

Cleans up after itself

When the job is done, you choose: delete the working copy of the chats from the computer with one button, or keep it there as a backup.

Privacy

Your chats never leave your computer.

MovTron has no cloud for your chats. The transfer happens between two phones and your own computer, over two USB cables. We cannot see your messages, because they are never sent to us.

  • Runs on your computer the chat data is copied phone to computer to phone
  • No chat content in logs or history the job history keeps dates, phone models and counts only
  • Working files are yours to delete one button at the end of every job, or keep them as a backup on your computer

Made in a phone shop, for phone shops

MovTron was built at a shop counter, for the job customers ask for every day: “put my chats on the new phone”.

  • Packs of phone credits one credit per customer phone; a retry on the same phone is free
  • A consent form to print the customer signs before you start
  • A job record without chat content date, phone models, counts and result
  • Warns before erasing anything if the new phone already has chats, it stops and asks
For shops and technicians

A counter job your whole team can do.

New staff can follow the screen on their first day. The customer watches the count before anything changes, and leaves with their chats and a clear record of what was done.

Questions

Straight answers.

Is MovTron made by WhatsApp?

No. MovTron is an independent tool. It is not made by, affiliated with or endorsed by WhatsApp or Meta. It prepares a backup file on the new phone, and the official app from the Play Store restores it on its normal Restore screen.

Is this an official way to move chats?

No. WhatsApp has its own free transfer for some cases, and it does not support third-party tools. MovTron exists for the cases the official route does not cover, such as WhatsApp Business, or keeping the chats already on the Android phone. Use it for your own chats, or with the owner’s permission.

Can you read my messages?

No. Your chats are copied from the iPhone to your computer and then to the Android phone. They are never uploaded to us or to anyone else, and they are not written into logs.

Do I need to root the Android phone or jailbreak the iPhone?

No. The iPhone is read through a normal local backup. The Android phone only needs USB debugging switched on for the transfer; you can switch it off afterwards.

What happens to the old iPhone?

Nothing. MovTron only reads from it. Keep it unchanged until you have looked through the chats on the new phone.

What if the transfer does not finish?

The old iPhone still has everything, and you can try again on the same phone at no cost. A credit is only used when a transfer finishes, so you do not pay for one that did not.

Can it move chats from Android to iPhone?

Not today. MovTron moves chats in one direction, from iPhone to Android.

Which computers does it run on?

macOS today. The Windows version is still being tested and is not released yet. On Windows you will also need Apple’s own software installed so the computer can talk to the iPhone; the setup guide will show where to get it.

Ready when your new phone is.

Two cables, one screen, and your chats are where you are.
