WhatsApp has finally launched a private and fast way for people to transfer their chats to a new device. The change fixes one of the biggest privacy issues with using the app. Until now, it has been difficult to move chats between devices – such as when getting a new phone – and so users may have been taken in by unofficial and potentially dangerous third-party apps offering a way to do so. Now users can keep their complete chat and media history as they move it between phones, without the need to exit the app. WhatsApp said the feature was intended to be “more secure than using unofficial third party apps which lack clear privacy practices, and more private than cloud services”. It is also meant to be faster than backing up the whole chat history, and also means that big files that would usually be left out of such a backup will be kept around. The system means that two devices can be put closely, checked with a QR code and then have their data shared between two devices on the same operating system. The tool is fully encrypted, meaning that there should be no way for that data to be stolen as it moves between the phones. To use the new tool, the two devices must be in the same physical location, connected to WiFi and with location settings on. It is then activated by clicking through to the Settings on the old phone, choosing “chats” and then “chat transfer”, which will bring up a QR code that can be scanned with the new phone. All of the data should then be moved from the old phone onto the new one, without the need to back it up or use third-party tools. The change is one of a range of recent features introduced by WhatsApp, as it aims to make privacy and security a central part of its offering. Recently it added a new feature aimed at blocking “spam and scam” calls, for instance, along with other privacy changes.

The Prince of Wales said he was “blown away” by futuristic technology on show from Singapore start-ups just hours before his Earthshot Prize awards ceremony. William toured the EcoLabs Centre of Innovation for Energy, at Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University. Hi-tech schemes for green energy included Autsren (ERI@N) which develops autonomous vehicles and long-lasting electric car batteries. He was told how the vehicles are used to collect golf balls and also ferry staff around Singapore Zoo. It reminds me of my chemistry and physics tests. I will have to write this down when I get home Prince of Wales And he was told the biggest challenge facing the autonomous vehicles was being attacked by peacocks and monkeys. The prince laughed and said: “That’s not something you normally think about. They never behave, those monkeys and peacocks.” William also marvelled at a PowerCube that can store solar energy in remote locations that could power 35 small flats for a year. And he was surprised by a start-up called ALIENA which has sent its first plasma thruster into orbit for almost two years, which can be used to measure climate data. He shook his head and looked impressed and said: “You’ve blown my mind.” But the prince, who has a geography degree, admitted he needed to brush up on his science after eco start-up Etavolt described how they were building a circular economy for solar panels via regeneration, recycling and digitisation of performance. William said: “It reminds me of my chemistry and physics tests. I will have to write this down when I get home.” After an intense run-down in technology of degraded solar panels, he added: “Thanks for the brush-up for my chemistry and physics.” The prince was at the labs in Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University which wants to become the most eco-friendly and sustainable in the world. It is one of 22 buildings in Singapore that is totally energy self-sufficient. It has 19,000 solar panels and generates 9.5 megawatts of energy. But the university cannot expand any further otherwise it would produce so much energy it would have to register officially as a power station, under Singapore laws.
