The WhatsApp application offers a backup feature to safeguard WhatsApp data, encompassing chat messages and media attachments. However, the WhatsApp Backup feature only preserves the latest backup, overwriting the previous one each time. If you wish to retain your prior WhatsApp backup without overwriting it, there are methods to achieve this. In this article, we present a solution for backing up iPhone WhatsApp data without replacing existing backups.
1. Backup WhatsApp data with WhatsApp Pocket
WhatsApp Pocket is an application designed for extracting and backing up WhatsApp data. It offers functionalities for iPhone devices, iTunes, and iCloud backups. Begin by downloading and installing the WhatsApp Pocket app on your computer. Then, connect your iPhone to the computer and launch WhatsApp Pocket.
