I recently got the Samsung S25. SmartSwitch worked fine for the regular data restoration from my old device. But, for some reason, I'm unable to restore my WhatsApp chats. The Chat Transfer doesn't work, nor does the Google Drive backup. I didn't uninstall WhatsApp on my old phone, so my chats seem to be safe. 

Is anyone else facing this issue? I tried all available fixes—restarting the devices, uninstalling WhatsApp on S25, again, etc. But none seem to work. 

Does anyone know what to do?
