Import of "Android WhatsApp chat" transferred to iPhone17 stuck at 99%

I am transferring my Whatsapp Chat from Android to iphone 17(Base Model). The size was around 23GB with total 35k items. The Chat is now being imported into my iphone 17. I wanted to know how much time it will take to import the chat completely, as it is already running since 9 hrs & stuck at 99% since 7-8hrs.

You will need to contact Meta for help with their software, this is not an Apple product. And since everyone's chat sessions are different, there is no possible way to know how long yours will take.


Here are a couple of ways to contact them -
