Your WhatsApp conversations could be saved on Google Drive in future

WhatsApp has been doing a new of new things lately. After introducing WhatsApp for Web and gradual roll out of Voice Calls, here’s some good news especially for those that change smart phones often.

It is reported that WhatsApp is working on a Cloud storage backup by allowing you to save your chat history and exchanged photos and videos on your Google Drive storage. This of course like any auto backup solutions would require your permission and you’ll need to grant Google Drive access to your WhatsApp application.

Usually if you’re switching from one Android to another, you would need to manually copy out the Database and Media folder into your new device. At least for iOS users, iCloud is doing a pretty good job of backing up and restoring your entire WhatsApp app completely with your past conversations. So far there’s no mention of its official roll out and hopefully it gets here soon before your next smart phone migration. If everything stored on the cloud, it would be great if the future WhatsApp Web could operate independently without being dependent on your smart phone.
