What I really like about Android is there are many cool apps available to make your work much similar. One such application that I use is called Backup Text for WhatsApp. It allows me to take selective backup based on time and contacts and export it to your mail or SD card in plain text, HTML or CSV format. However, this can also be used to Hack WhatsApp conversation as it can use to read WhatsApp conversation even if whats app is locked.
Backup and restore WhatsApp messages on iPhone
Since WhatsApp don’t take automatic backup on iPhone as it did on Android so you will need to take manual backup.
You can’t restore you WhatsApp conversation if you haven’t already set auto back using iCloud.However, you can try iPhone Data Recovery if you want to restore WhatsApp conversation for this purpose.
To manually take the backup to go to  WhatsApp Settings > Chat Settings > Chat Backup > Take a backup. Here you can also turn on the back auto feature for more frequent backups.
Read this whatsapp guide for step by step instruction to setup up iCloud for backup.

To check the time of your last backup:
- In the chats screen, tap on the three dots in the bottom right-hand corner.
- Tap settings.
- You can see the time of the last backup under [backup] (do not tap [backup]; otherwise, a new backup will be created).
