Move your chats from a device that cannot update

An iPhone or iPad that cannot update to iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 keeps your chats readable, but KUVRT sends and receives nothing on it - except to link another device. Move your chats to another phone or a computer by linking it.

1. On the new phone or computer, open KUVRT and tap "I already use KUVRT", then "Link with another device". It shows a linking code.
2. On this iPhone or iPad, tap "Move your chats". It opens "Add a device": type the code and tap "Continue".
3. Check that both devices show the same digits and tap "The digits match". Keep KUVRT open on both until the new one says "Your chats are on this device now."

Your contacts, settings and chats are then on the new device. This iPhone or iPad keeps its copy until you remove it.

If you cannot link, export your chats here and import the file on the new device after restoring it from your recovery phrase - restoring cuts off your other devices.
