Backup my WhatsApp Chat from my iPhone to Dropbox

The Subject is the issue.

  • Dropbox has no such capability to do this - anything that would do this would be implemented by WhatsApp itself as they would need to write it in to their applications to connect to Dropbox.

      Thank you Mark,

      I have WatsApp on my iPhone & it backsup all data on iCloud, the reason why I wanted to back it up to Dropbox because I am converting to an Android cellphone & I do not want to loose my WhatsApp data & need to restore it onto my Android. Do you have a solution for that?

      Have a nice day.

        Dropbox has no such feature. You'll be better off asking on forum dedicated to WhatsApp, or contacting their Support directly.

    Hey there guindi50 - how are you today?

    Could you let me know what kind of file (type and extension - size if possible too)would that backup be and how would you be uploading it our servers in the first place?
