Wondershare Technology is a key member of the National Planning Software Enterprises of China and a global leader in application software development. We have users in over 150 countries. Wondershare is committed to providing software that brings simplicity to people's lives.MobileTrans offers Mobile Phone Data Transfer Software, Backup and Restore Tools. PC software for Mac and Win users and mobile version applications are available to transfer photos, contacts, sms, etc in one-click .
Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers praise the software for making it remarkably simple to transfer WhatsApp data and chat histories between different mobile operating systems without experiencing any data loss. Consumers note that the tool efficiently handles large media files and difficult backups when standard official methods completely fail.
However, some reviewers were not happy with unexpected connection drops and occasional data transfer failures during the setup process. Some people also felt that the onscreen instructions were quite confusing and required extra manual steps to finish the task. Users additionally mentioned difficulties regarding customer support responses or lack of refunds when issues occurred.
Based on reviews I downloaded paid for Mobile Trans. I went to back up whatsapp to my PC but saw only options to transfer to IOS devices. I give the benefit of the doubt to the company. I looked at their instruction video and the options appeared different. There is always a possibility that I have a glitch in the download. I signed on and went to support chat and seemingly got sort of ignored. I hope I can resolve this. Here is the transcript;

Hi, thanks for contacting us. Please provide a brief description of the question first (Ignore if you had provided). The agent will be joining to reply soon. Thank you.
2024/2/20 15:51:31
Hi! Thank you so much for holding. My name is Nur from the Wondershare team. I am here to help.
2024/2/20 15:52:25
What were you trying to do?
2024/2/20 15:53:15
Back up whatsapp to PC. It only shows options to transfer to IOS device
2024/2/20 15:56:36
hello?
2024/2/20 15:59:13
I have very limited time. Please respond
I don't mind waiting when an agent is checking something but I don't have time for this.
Additional;
Following hearing from Wondershare below, I have emailed them as requested. It is unfortunate that this seemed the best way to get their attention.
UPDATE; I have upgraded to 4 stars because I received (apparently) the correct instructions, however there are many steps involved typing on the phone and I have disabled hands and could not proceed without making errors. I think that all the instructions should be clearly outlined prior to purchase. I guess I'll be requesting a refund.
Edit again; Okay, I have returned to one star because customer assistance is terrible. I did manage to get a friend to complete the steps on the phone and download the Whatsapp content to the computer. After doing this, there was a 'view' function within the mobile trans (MT) software to read whatsapp messages.
After I closed MT, I tried reading the whatsapp content from where it was stored on the computer but it did not open. I then opened MT again to see if I could find the 'view' function again. No luck.
I therefore emailed MT support to ask if it was even possible to read these messages and if so how; a straight forward question. Instead of a simple answer I received a robotic style request to submit logs and screen shot and perhaps a short video. This 'agent' presumably knows from previous communications of my disability; also I said in my first email my screen capture does not work.
I asked the same question again; 'are the whatsapp files readable on computer?' If you answer first then I'll send logs. Again the same robotic response. It's as if they do not actually read the emails. They only respond to certain key words? I asked the question once more yesterday and no response yet.
Additional Information Feb 22
In response to my specific question above I received this response this morning;
"Hi there,
Greetings from the Wondershare Support Team!
Thanks for contacting us. This is Ezra, and I am sorry to know that you are having an issue with your purchase. This is not the experience we want you to have, let me be of assistance.
In line with your concern, please refer below steps to back up your data to your computer.
Step 1. Connect your phone to the computer"... and on it goes
This is obviously not a real person. Absolutely ridiculous and appalling. I stated more than once that I had already backed up the data to my computer. What a sham of a company!
Feb 23 Update
You have my order number as I sent it to you at the first request. Request for support # 3538353
I have FINALLY received a partial answer to my question from 'Joyce' stating that the whatsapp files are not readable on the computer. However the other part of my question asking if and how I might read them using MT software was not addressed.
Think about it. Would it not have been easier to address my inquiries with an actual agent who can actually read, rather than have your operation techniques exposed like this publicly, potentially losing customers? By the way, I said sham, not scam.
UPDATE February 27
I finally received an answer to my question which they had to get from the programmers. (grin) The complex answer was 'to view the whatsapp messages on the computer, click on restore' Why on earth that cannot be given on front line support is your guess.
I tried going through the process of restoring the backed up files to a new android. It is WAY more complicated than they say. They left out a step in the instructions for changing the com.fwhatsapp file name to com.whatsapp which caused unnecessary angst. After all that it seems their software (SW) is unstable. I had to install Whatsapp 3 times because the SW could not detect it. After stalling the transfer SW asked that I rename the file which was already renamed. The process failed. Not good. wasted $

i am moving from andriod to iphone and came across this, i purchased to start the transfer with the cable and it didnt work, and it made me purchase another one at a much higher price still i couldn’t transfer to iphone 15plus, it kept showing me to use a lighting cable which 1phone 15 plus doesn’t have as it’s the new usbc cable. So I now had to purchase a 3rd one for desktop, the app was kinda working.i got to the part I had to do end to end encryption on my android which I did and I also created a password . I have gone to enter my number on the new iphone and it requests the 64 bit encryption code which it didn’t as before, now I have entered the 64 bit key and my password and it doesn’t work. I have been trying to migrate all week from android to iphone and this app was my last hope, and now my data is not even up to date. I cant restore my data as it ask for a key which I have entered from doing it on my android and it doesn’t work. So now I want a full refund of all 3 payments made and I also want my data which it advised Is stored for the transfer to the new phone. The biggest issue i have now is that i have lost my data and i cant restore the most recent chats from my icloud to my iphone.

Trialed this product. Was on the fence about buying. When I went to log off a popup appeared stating 50% off product, at that point I decided to buy for a year. After the purchase at 19.95 I found out this was a purchase for only 1 week of the product. I am still trying to get my money back from this company. Terrible customer support.
After hearing from Wondershare after Trust Pilot forwarded my review to them I stand by my original review. Below is Wonder shares response.

(Wondershare request #3398009, if you're with their tech support.)
Downloaded and installed MobilTrans on Mac. Android and new iPhone connected as verified by MobileTrans app. Logged in and WhatsApp module purchase was verified, but clicking START only displays the BuyNow window. MobileTrans does not attempt to transfer WhatsApp files.
Support sent a link to an updated version, but the same thing happens... Buy Now screen and no transfer.
I've requested that they escalate to a senior support technician, but have not received a response after 7 hours.
I'll request full refund of the PayPal payment after 12 hours if I haven't heard back.
UPDATE: Eventually Wondershare responded and refunded my purchase. I appreciate the speed of the refund and the time they took with my issues.

It takes some time for our programmer to investigate the problem you are encountering, and this might be the reason why our technical support didn't reach back to you after 7 hours.

Downloading the app was easy, I paid with Paypal without problems.
It became difficult when the "from" Samsung G8 could not connect with the app. There was no issue with the "to" Google Pixel 7, except that I had to go turn on the USB debugging option, which the app explained well, step by step.
It took longer with the G8, but eventually, somehow, it connected.
The files, contacts, phone logs, texts all transferred without issues, although I had to stay on task to give several authorizations. The apps are something else.
All the icons showed up on the "to" phone, but none worked. Failure to launch. I tried again the next day, both phones connected right away with the Wondershare, and I transferred only the apps. It went quickly, still having to give multiple authorizations for transfer, and now the apps work. Login and passwords have to be re-entered though.

I needed a product but I was caught because of the so-called "7-day money-back guarantee".
After purchasing, you won't find this option anywhere anymore. You need to write to support chat, that doesn't connect to human. Or you need to call, a phone isn't available. What a scam business! I need my refund!

It simply doesn't work as advertised. Save your money! I bought it to specifically transfer Whatsapp stickers (they have an article on their website saying it does exactly that), and it didn't work. To make matters worse when I asked support about it they replied "As for the stickers issue, sorry to say that our program does not support the function you want now. However, we will collect your feedback as a demand request and report to our programmer to carry that feature in our feature updates."
It's just plain false advertising.

I was searching for ways to transfer files quickly from my phone to make a data backup and this site was one of the top Google results. They offered a guide with one of the suggested methods being to download their software. Typical SEO marketing trick...
I will not download this software specifically because they display a fake Trustpilot rating of 4.5/5 next to the download button. Such a blatant and scummy tactic to get downloads. There must be a good reason they are rated lower than they (falsely) advertise.

I never knew it would be such a mission to move WhatsApp from Android to Apple and WhatsApp Business from one phone to another (Android to Android)
I almost gave up on transferring until I found this software.
It did take hours and hours to transfer but that was because our internet speed sucks.
What I did enjoy was the clear and precise image instructions you gave to follow whenever something needed to be set up on the phone.
Would I recommend you? Yes.
