How to do contactless messaging on WhatsApp? Using WhatsApp API that’s how
WhatsApp has become an integral part of our daily communication. Whether it’s personal chats or business chats, WhatsApp is everywhere. In my case, I utilize a simple hack to message anyone without even saving their contact number.
Here’s how you can do that as well, just follow these 3 simple steps given below:-
1. Open a web browser (make sure you have redirections/open links in apps enabled).
2. Navigate to “https://wa.me/<country code><WhatsApp number>” by entering above query in url bar.
3. You will be redirected to “api.whatsapp.com”. Just click on the “CONTINUE TO CHAT/OPEN IN WHATSAPP/OPEN (popup)” option (depending on the browser) and voilà.
[ NOTE: DON’T USE “+” SIGN in country code, suppose you are messaging someone in India then just use country code i.e, 91 instead of +91. ]
Example:- https://wa.me/919876543210
Where,
91 is the country code without the + sign
9876543210 is the WhatsApp number.
This is a very handy WhatsApp API feature which is uncommon knowledge. Do share this with your friends and family.
