<p>Did you know you can avoid WhatsApp banning your account? This is a good gesture to avoid potential loss of access to your account. In most cases, you will not get a warning when WhatsApp bans your account since once your account is marked, there is no proven way to bypass the mark.</p>



<p>The major causes of WhatsApp bans include using modified versions such as GBWhatsApp, FMWhatsApp, and TMWhatsApp. Also, having your account reported by multiple users as fraudulent attracts a WhatsApp ban to safeguard other users. In most cases, if you‘re using WhatsApp business, your account is closely tracked for violations.</p>



<p>Additionally, when someone blocks your number, WhatsApp often asks the user for a reason as to why they are blocking you. If multiple users block you and state the same reason, your account may get banned to save guard the privacy of others.</p>



<p>So, the best ways to avoid WhatsApp banning your account or suspending it for a good amount of time include the following listed below:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list" type="1"><li>Keep your WhatsApp number in good books by refraining from getting blocked by many contacts or users for the same reasons.</li><li>Don’t over-register your WhatsApp account on different devices in different locations (Countries &amp; ISPs) in a short time. This is possible if you’re using a bad VPN that’s deleting your Apps forcing you to re-register.</li><li>Avoid using WhatsApp web if you’re using a modded WhatsApp version like GBWhatsApp.</li><li>When using WhatsApp business, make sure you sell genuine products &amp; services than looking like a fraud that may force users to report your account. If you’re selling hacked products, chances are high that you’ll be reported and banned on WhatsApp.</li><li>Use the original WhatsApp version. If you’re a fan of modded versions, then follow the steps below.</li></ol>



<p>If you are using a modified version of WhatsApp such as GBWhatsApp, then, try your level best to refrain from the following:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Forwarding so many messages at once.</li><li>Posting of long statuses. For example, Videos with 7+ minutes.</li><li>Activating the auto-reply function.</li><li>Too much uninstalling and reinstalling of modded WhatsApp versions, and switching between mods. For example, switching from GBWhatsApp to TMWhatsApp and vice versa.</li><li>Sharing unwanted messages, pictures, and videos in bulk.</li><li>Deleting many people from a group continuously.</li><li>Hiding Blue ticks and the second tick.</li></ul>



<p>In conclusion, these are the best ways you can avoid WhatsApp banning your account. The good thing is that bans are often temporary and will not be permanent. But if you can avoid getting banned, try and keep in the good books since it will affect your number on other applications as well such as Facebook and Instagram.</p>

<p>GBWhatsApp is a moded version of WhatsApp that is loved by many for its exciting features and addon options that make Instant Messaging more fun. However, its not recommended by the WhatsApp team, and as such, a scheme to block usage of the modded App is strongly discouraged.</p>



<p>Commonly, WhatsApp will suspend you account if it detects that your phone number uses a modified version such as <a href="https://techpointmag.com/download-install-gbwhatsapp-on-your-smartphone/" data-type="post" data-id="4230">GBWhatsApp </a>or <a href="https://techpointmag.com/download-the-latest-tmwhatsapp-2020-version-with-anti-ban-inbuilt-vpn/" data-type="post" data-id="11629">TMWhatsApp.</a> Over the years, the GBWhatsApp team has in return modded their way around the suspension bans making it clear for users to safely message without any fears for a suspension.</p>



<p>Now, what actually happens if you switch from GBWhatsApp to the original WhatsApp application is much more terrifying that a suspension. For example, if you are switching from an Android Smartphone to an iPhone, then, the new changes actually catch up with you.</p>



<p>All groups you are a member of will receive the notification <em>&#8220;&lt;your-contact-name> has left the group&#8221;</em>. This means, WhatsApp will delete your account once you make the switch from GBWhatsApp and verify your phone number on the original application.</p>



<p>If you link your WhatsApp GB account to the <a href="https://techpointmag.com/how-to-make-video-calls-on-whatsapp-web/" data-type="post" data-id="13846">WhatsApp web </a>application, you will not get affected in any way, but if you rely on the WhatsApp Web&#8217;s online feature where you don&#8217;t need to keep your phone linked, and by any means your token expires asking for a relink. You may get affected if instead of installing GBWhatsApp, you verify using the original WhatsApp application.</p>

<p>Soon, you will import chats from Android to IOS devices, as per new leaks, WhatsApp is working to improve its currently one-way feature that facilitates data transfer between <a href="https://techpointmag.com/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios/" data-type="post" data-id="14065">Android and IOS devices. </a></p>



<p>Over the past few months, WhatsApp has also transformed from simply a mobile app, to an Instant messaging as a service client. By this standard, WhatsApp synchronizes your data to its cloud servers and makes it available on your computer through <a href="https://techpointmag.com/how-to-make-video-calls-on-whatsapp-web/" data-type="post" data-id="13846">WhatsApp web.</a></p>



<p>Well, much as it&#8217;s not possible to use the same WhatsApp account on two smartphones, the ability to transfer your chats from Android to IOS will make it easy to transfer content between devices. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Whatsapp-import-chats-feature.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="670" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Whatsapp-import-chats-feature.jpg" alt="Whatsapp import chats feature" class="wp-image-15077" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Whatsapp-import-chats-feature.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Whatsapp-import-chats-feature-300x268.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure></div>



<p>The reveal was made by WABeta and screenshots from the IOS ver 22.2.74 show the incoming ability for Android users to sync messages to the IOS devices.</p>



<p>At the moment, WhatsApp has not revealed a timeframe on when the feature will launch, but once made available to all users, it becomes simpler to switch between an Android smartphone and an iPhone release. </p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>WhatsApp is reportedly working on multi-device support to make the Instant messaging service a not just mobile-only platform, but a cross-platform application that can be used on desktop, mobile, and tablets. Over the years, WhatsApp Web has ruled as the best option a user can access the Instant Messaging platform on a computer at a cost of having an active Internet connection with your Smartphone.</p>



<p>In an interview with <a href="https://www.techradar.com/news/we-speak-to-whatsapp-about-the-new-features-coming-up-for-your-device" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tech Radar</a>, WhatsApp executives confirmed the emergence of an array of new features headlined by multi-device support to help you access the platform without necessarily having to own a Smartphone. </p>



<p>Well, you can credit emulators like Bluestacks that have always made it possible to use <a href="https://techpointmag.com/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios/" data-type="post" data-id="14065">WhatsApp </a>directly on a PC, and of recent WIndows 11 support for direct Android applications. But with the new multi-device WhatsApp functionality, you will not require any extra installation files on your computer or Tablet, but instead, a single complete package as a WhatsApp spokesperson inked.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p><em>WhatsApp Web remains an important platform for our users. Until now, WhatsApp has only been available on one device at a time. Desktop and Web support only worked by mirroring off your phone – which meant your phone had to be on and have an active internet connection.</em></p></blockquote>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/WhatsApp-multi-device-support.jpg"><img decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/WhatsApp-multi-device-support.jpg" alt="WhatsApp multi device support" class="wp-image-14609" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/WhatsApp-multi-device-support.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/WhatsApp-multi-device-support-300x200.jpg 300w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/WhatsApp-multi-device-support-450x300.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure>



<p>Even though WhatsApp has not confirmed a release date for the feature, the company notes that multi-device support will help millions of users from going through the difficulty of using WhatsApp on other devices.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p><em>Multi-device means that users will have the same functionality that is available on the current public versions of WhatsApp Web, Desktop, and Portal, just without the need to have your phone connected. Our multi-device capability immediately makes the experience better for people who use Desktop/Web and Portal. And it also will make it possible to add support for more kinds of devices over time.</em></p></blockquote>



<p>According to the WhatsApp spokesperson, the COVID19 pandemic can be attributed to the birth of such features since many businesses are now opting for desktop calling and messaging on platforms like Zoom. Placing WhatsApp as a center of instant conversations would make it easier for businesses and users to communicate without boundaries.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>We are always working to make private conversations on WhatsApp feel as close to in-person as possible, regardless of where you are in the world or the tech you’re using. With so many people still apart from their loved ones, adjusting to new ways of working and trying to keep their businesses running, we’ve focused on how we can provide more support in these area.</p></blockquote>



<p>Aside from multi-device support, WhatsApp is also working on an array of features aimed at increasing user security and making the platform a must-have for every device holder around the world. For now, a timeline has not been set on when new features will leave the launchpad, but as per the new leaks, WhatsApp will get better by the end of 2021.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>WhatsApp Pink is a new Android-based virus that has started making rounds on the Internet. The App is served through links shared in WhatsApp groups and chats, in most cases, it&#8217;s portrayed as a beautiful version of WhatsApp with a pink texture to it, but once installed, complete control over your smartphone is lost.</p>



<p>In the past year, <a href="https://techpointmag.com/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios/" class="rank-math-link">WhatsApp </a>has worked on many measures to make its platform secure from such attacks with the most recent being a bug in its ID verification system that lets an attacker remotely deactivate your account. But with WhatsApp Mods, no regulations have been set since Android is an open-source operating system which makes it hard to block any open-source fork.</p>



<p>Popularly, <a href="https://techpointmag.com/download-install-gbwhatsapp-on-your-smartphone/" class="rank-math-link">GBWhatsApp</a>, <a href="https://techpointmag.com/download-the-latest-tmwhatsapp-2020-version-with-anti-ban-inbuilt-vpn/" class="rank-math-link">TMWhatsApp</a>, YOWhatsApp rank as genuine Mods a user can securely install on a Smartphone, but with the new WhatsApp Pink application, an attacker takes complete control of your smartphone in pretense for offering you a beautiful WhatsApp mod with a pink texture.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How WhatsApp Pink Spreads</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-pink-virus-download.jpg"><img decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-pink-virus-download.jpg" alt="whatsapp pink virus download" class="wp-image-14143" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-pink-virus-download.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-pink-virus-download-300x200.jpg 300w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-pink-virus-download-450x300.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure>



<p>Apparently, WhatsApp links found in groups and chats are open avenues for viruses, malware, and trojan horses. In most cases, links are spread with freebie clauses like <em>&#8220;Click here to Get 50GB of <a href="https://techpointmag.com/how-to-get-free-airtel-data/" class="rank-math-link">Free Airtel Data</a>&#8220;</em>, once a user clicks on such a link, the attacker utilizes this action to gain control of the user&#8217;s device. </p>



<p>Now, with WhatsApp Pink, the malicious link attracts users into downloading an <a href="https://techpointmag.com/how-to-manually-install-android-apps-using-apks/" class="rank-math-link">Apk file</a> which requires the user to install inorder to start using the pink <a href="https://techpointmag.com/fix-temporarily-banned-on-whatsapp/" class="rank-math-link">version of WhatsApp</a>. But once the Application is installed, the attacker (developer of the app) gains immediate control of your Smartphone as soon as it is launched. </p>



<p>The app claims to be the &#8216;new look&#8217; of WhatsApp making it attractive for a click, and its virus components were discovered by an Indian-based researcher Rajshekar Rajaharia. Rajaharia shared images of the application through a Tweet with a clear warning to users from falling prey.</p>



<p>As per his trial, WhatsApp Pink disappears from your applications list once installed and registered with any of your active phone numbers. By this standard, it gets to act like an inbuilt system application that runs in the background without your knowledge. However, the good news is that you can uninstall WhatsApp Pink in case you have already installed it on your device.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Update &#8211; <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WhatsappPink?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#WhatsappPink</a> app is getting hide automatically after installation.<br>To UnInstall it &#8211; Go to settings =&gt; Go to storage or apps (depends on model) =&gt; you can see the list of apps that are installed in your phone. There you can uninstall hidden apps. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/InfoSec?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#InfoSec</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/rahulyadavrds?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@rahulyadavrds</a> <a href="https://t.co/iaIhVW9rhi" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/iaIhVW9rhi</a></p>&mdash; Rajshekhar Rajaharia (@rajaharia) <a href="https://twitter.com/rajaharia/status/1384104325559898118?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">April 19, 2021</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Uninstall WhatsApp Pink if already Installed on your Device</h2>



<p>If you accidentally installed WhatsApp Pink on your smartphone, the good news is that you can uninstall the application as fast as time allows. For starters, you can block any required permissions (depending on your Android version) once requested by the App.</p>



<p>Thereafter, you can head to <strong>Settings -> Apps</strong> and uninstall WhatsApp Pink from the list of applications. But if the App changes its display name, simply locate any unfamiliar Application from the list and install it from your Smartphone to stay safe from any potential hacks and malware that may be spread to your device.</p>

<p>WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will allow you to transfer chats from Android to IOS. In the past, you could only transfer your WhatsApp chats from Android to IOS by using 3rd party tools like Dr. Fone, but in the presence of these, WhatsApp has always noted that they act against its terms of use. So, the <a href="https://techpointmag.com/5-whatsapp-alternatives-respect-privacy/" class="rank-math-link">Instant Messaging giant </a>is rolling out the feature to give user the power to transfer chats from an Android Smartphone to iPhone.</p>



<p>At the moment, the feature is still in its early development stages and may roll out in mid-2021 as leaked by WABetaInfo – a reliable WhatsApp information source. The feature was spotted in a recent WhatsApp Beta update, and it will require users to have the latest version of WhatsApp in order to transfer chats from <a href="https://techpointmag.com/transfer-files-from-your-smartphone-to-a-computer/" class="rank-math-link">Android to IOS and vice versa.</a></p>



<p>Once the feature is rolled out, you will be able to transfer text chats, images, video, voice notes, and all media from Android to IOS and vice versa. This means, if you often switch Smartphones from Android-based variants to the Apple league, this feature will save you from the stressful task of having to start fresh conversations in groups and individual chats.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios.jpg" alt="whatsapp transfer chats from android to ios" class="wp-image-14071" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios-300x200.jpg 300w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/whatsapp-transfer-chats-from-android-to-ios-450x300.jpg 450w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure>



<p>By functionality, the feature may work in a wireless fashion which will compile a backup of your current WhatsApp information and share it over Bluetooth or a private personal hotspot from your Android to iPhone with ease. For now, WABetaInfo has not leaked further details on when we can expect to see the new WhatsApp chats transfer method.</p>



<p>But as compared to all <a href="https://techpointmag.com/whatsapp-dark-mode-now-available-android/" class="rank-math-link">leaked features in the past</a>, WhatsApp features often take a while to leave the launchpad, and we can expect the new game-changing feature to be launched in mid-2021 for Beta testers to give it a try before a public rollout. Currently, expect to see a smooth way of transferring <a href="http://whatsapp.com" class="rank-math-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WhatsApp </a>data from Android to IOS without using sophisticated Apps.</p>

With the growing demand for GMWhatsApp mainly on Android and less on IOS, the app has become a must-have alongside the original WhatsApp version. Infact, enthusiasts rate the App as the best WhatsApp variant since it has all extensive features every user would want on their smartphone.</p>



<p>Well if you wish to download the latest GMWhatsApp version on your Smartphone, you don&#8217;t need any special filesystem in order to start the installation process. You simply need to have a Smartphone running at least Android 6.0 and above inorder for GBWhatsApp to work with the best permissions on your Smartphone.</p>



<p>Among the key permissions required by GBWhatsApp include location access, storage, contacts access, and many more which allow you to run the App with fewer limitations on what services you can use. Nonetheless, here is a list with some of the most required permissions upon installation of <a href="https://androidcomet.com/download-gbwhatsapp-latest-version-features-and-more/" class="rank-math-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GBWhatsApp on your Android Smartphone.</a></p>

<p>Unlike the regular base <a href="https://techpointmag.com/how-to-make-video-calls-on-whatsapp-web/" class="rank-math-link">WhatsApp application</a>, GBWhatsApp is not available on the Google Playstore. This is due to Playstrore terms and conditions which don&#8217;t allow clones of apps to be uploaded on the platform and given a green flag to download. But, you can download GBWhatsApp directly on websites like Android comet, Latest mod apks, among others that host the latest genuine Apks of this mod.</p>



<div class="wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex">
<div class="wp-block-button is-style-fill"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-midnight-gradient-background has-text-color has-background" href="https://androidcomet.com/download/download-the-latest-gbwhatsapp-version/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Latest GBWhatsApp Version</a></div>
</div>

</div>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How to install GBWhatsapp on your Smartphone</h3>



<p>Installing an Android apk is something easy that requires you to have an apk and turning on unknown sources in your device settings. In case you are unsure how to do this, worry, not read about <a class="rank-math-link" href="https://techpointmag.com/2018/06/13/how-to-manually-install-android-apps-using-apks/">how you can install an android app here</a>.</p>



<p>Well, once you download the GBWhatsApp apk on your Smartphone, simply open the downloaded file and click on it to open it. Once open, you&#8217;ll be required to allow installation – depending on your Android Operating system version. Then, you&#8217;ll be able to click through the installation steps to successfully install GBWhatsApp even when you have an existing WhatsApp application on the same device.</p>



<p>However, you cannot install GBWhatsApp directly through the Google Playstore or 3rd party stores since the app is not available there. So, the only way you can get the latest Genuine Copy is by using any of our download links above.</p>



<p>In a nutshell, you should be enjoying GBWhatsApp on your Smartphone in the same fashion as the original WhatsApp version which gives you the ability to have 2 or more accounts on a single device.

<p>You can now make video calls on Whatsapp web, and even more, you can make voice calls using the same platform on your computer.

<p>After a bunch of user privacy and trust issues rising from WhatsApp&#8217;s 2021 privacy policy update which will alow the app to share data with Facebook, Telegram as one of the best alternatives has now started supporting imported WhatsApp history allowing users directly import WhatsApp messages to the platform.</p>



<p>Currently, the best way to import WhatsApp messages to Telegram is through exporting your data to be directly retrieved by Telegram with contact selections of those actively registered on the app. This means, every node of your chat history will be saved in the same order as your contacts.</p>



<p>In the importation process of your Whatsapp messages to Telegram, you will not face any errors associated with losing your previous chat data as a matter of migration. Often, switching between apps attracts data loss, but with migrating your WhatsApp data to Telegram, all your data will be saved.</p>



<p>Since Telegram groups operate in a different fashion as compared to Whatsapp groups, you may not get any of your group history imported to the platform. Henceforth, only your Whatsapp chat history with contacts will be migrated in the same style, shared media, and notes similar to your previous chat session.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Import WhatsApp messages to Telegram</h2>



<p>Well, to import your WhatsApp messages to Telegram, all you need to do is export your WhatsApp data, then, import the exported data to <a href="https://techpointmag.com/a-simplified-guide-to-telegram-video-calls-and-profile-videos/" class="rank-math-link">Telegram</a> and cross check through the retrieved chat information which may include text messages and media such as videos, pictures, voice notes and stickers. Nonetheless, here is how you can import your Whatsapp messages to Telegram on your smartphone.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Export-WhatsApp-messages-to-Telegram.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Export-WhatsApp-messages-to-Telegram.jpg" alt="How to Export WhatsApp Messages to Telegram" class="wp-image-13576" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Export-WhatsApp-messages-to-Telegram.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Export-WhatsApp-messages-to-Telegram-300x200.jpg 300w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Export-WhatsApp-messages-to-Telegram-450x300.jpg 450w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>From your applications list, open WhatsApp</li><li>Then, on your main chats list, tap the 3 options button (top right corner)</li><li>Then, from the options drop down menu, select More</li><li>Choose Export, Then choose Telegram from the popup list of options</li><li>Telegram will start importing your WhatsApp data</li><li>Once importation is done, open Telegram to confirm your retieved chats</li><li><strong>DONE: </strong>You just imported your WhatsApp messages to Telegram</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Import a single Whatsapp contact&#8217;s chat to Telegram</h2>



<p>Given the fact that many users have not swicthed to Telegram as yet, a bunch of your contacts may not be active on the platform as yet, but you could be sure on who has an active account on the platform, and so, you get to export their chat history with ease. With the process, only a single contact&#8217;s chat history will be imported to <a href="http://telegram.com" class="rank-math-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">telegram</a>, and here is how you can achieve that.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Exporting-WhatsApp-Messages-to-Telegram.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Exporting-WhatsApp-Messages-to-Telegram.jpg" alt="How to Import WhatsApp chats to Telegram" class="wp-image-13574" srcset="https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Exporting-WhatsApp-Messages-to-Telegram.jpg 750w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Exporting-WhatsApp-Messages-to-Telegram-300x200.jpg 300w, https://techpointmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Exporting-WhatsApp-Messages-to-Telegram-450x300.jpg 450w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></figure>
