How to transfer my WhatsApp chat from my iPhone 15 Plus to an Android phone?

Hey everyone,


I'm trying to transfer my What’s App chat from my iPhone 15plus (iOS 18.0.1) to an Android 14 (Redmi Note), but I can't seem to remember how I did it last time. 😅


I've watched a bunch of videos, but when I try to connect both devices with a cable and set up the Android as a new phone, I get a message on my iPhone that says “cannot use accessory - this accessory uses too much power” instead of giving the authorization to trust the device. Because of this, I can't select all the apps to move to Android. If I use the WiFi transfer, I’m not able to select apps, only videos, pics, and contacts.


Does anyone have any advice on how to help me with this?


Thanks in advance!
