How to whatsapp someone without saving their number


6 Ways to Send WhatsApp Message Without Saving Number

Usually, in order to message someone on WhatsApp, you must first save their phone number on your phone. This takes a long time and results in the unnecessary addition of contacts if you only need to text them once or twice. Thankfully, there are many ways to send WhatsApp messages without adding the number to your contact list. Let’s check the different methods.

1. WhatsApp’s Click-to-Chat Feature

WhatsApp has a native feature that allows you to message someone without saving their phone number. This feature, known as click-to-chat, is not directly available in the WhatsApp app. To send messages without saving the contact, you must create a link containing the number and open that link.

Note: This method works on both mobile and computer.

Use the following steps to create and use click-to-chat links:

  1. Copy and paste the https://wa.me/<number> link in your browser, note-taking, chat apps, or any other app where you can access it quickly.
  1. Now whenever you want to WhatsApp someone without saving their number, simply replace <number> part of the link with the full number of the recipient in international format i.e., country code + actual number. Do not add any zeros, + signs, dashes, or brackets. Then, tap on the link to open it.

Examples:

  • https://wa.me/912134567890, where 91 is the country code of India and 2134567890 is the phone number.
  • https://wa.me/12134567890, where 1 is the country code of the USA and 2134567890 is the phone number.
  1. You should now see the “Continue to chat” button. Tap on it to open the chat thread on WhatsApp.

If the number isn’t a WhatsApp user, you will get a message that the number doesn’t exist or something similar.

Pro tip: I usually text wa.me/<number> to the WhatsApp chat thread that I have created with myself followed by tapping on the sent link. This initiates a WhatsApp chat thread with the phone number specified in the link.

If you own a business, you can use this method to allow your customers to directly message you on WhatsApp without saving your number. You can even add a pre-filled message that will automatically appear in the chat.

2. Third-Party Websites

While the method described above is extremely simple in practice, it may appear to be laborious. If you don’t want to go the extra mile, you can use third-party websites to send WhatsApp messages without saving a contact.

On these websites, you simply enter the number, and the WhatsApp chat thread with that number is opened on your phone or PC. These websites, as expected, use the click-to-chat feature only, but they make it simple for users to access and use it.

Let’s check the steps:

  1. Open SendWhatsappMsg.com in a browser on your mobile or PC. You should bookmark the link or add its shortcut on your mobile phone’s home screen for faster access.
  2. Select the country of the recipient from the drop-down box under the WhatsApp number.
  3. Then, type the phone number and add your message.
  4. Finally, click on the “Send message” button.
  1. The WhatsApp chat thread will open with the number you provided in step 2. You may now begin chatting with the individual without saving their phone number.

Some other websites that you can use are:

  • Nocontact
  • Easy Message
  • Rainer.li

3. Third-Party Apps

You can install third-party apps on your Android phone or iPhone, similar to websites, that will allow you to text someone on WhatsApp without adding them to your contacts list.

These apps make use of WhatsApp’s click-to-chat feature only. So you enter the number, and the app will open the WhatsApp chat thread with that number. These apps require no additional permission.

Follow these steps for the Easy Messsage app:

  1. Install the Easy Message app on Android or iOS.
  2. Type or copy-paste the number in international format.
  3. Hit the “Start chat in WhatsApp” button to open the WhatsApp chat thread with the unsaved number.

Other click-to-chat apps that you can try are:

  • Direct Message for WhatsApp (iOS)
  • Click to Chat (iOS)
  • WhatsDirect (Android)
  • Click to chat (Android)

4. Siri Shortcut (iPhone Only)

On iPhone, you can use the Siri shortcuts to WhatsApp people without saving their number.

  1. Install the Apple Shortcuts app on your iPhone.
  2. Next, install the WhatsApp to Non Contact shortcut on your iPhone. For that, simply tap on the link on your iPhone and hit the “Add shortcut” button. Two other similar shortcuts to try are WhatsApp Unsaved Number and WhatsApp Thread.

Tip: If you face any issue while installing the shortcut, learn how to install third-party Siri shortcuts on iPhone. Also, check out the best Siri Shortcuts for power users.

  1. Next, open the Apple Shortcuts app and you will see the newly installed shortcut. Tap on it to run it.
  1. A pop-up will appear. Tap on “Choose recipient” and type the number in the international format to whom you want to message.
  1. The WhatsApp chat thread with that particular number will open.
  2. You can make the process easier by adding the shortcut to the home screen of your iPhone. For that, open the Shortcuts app and tap on the three-dot icon on the “WhatsApp to Non Contact” shortcut.
  1. Press the three-bar icon at the top.
  2. Select “Add to Home Screen”.
  1. Finally, tap on “Add” in the upper right corner.
  1. Now, whenever you want to message someone on WhatsApp without adding them to your iPhone contacts, simply tap on the shortcut icon on the home screen.
  2. Press the “Choose Recipient” button.
  3. Then type the phone number to start a WhatsApp chat thread.

5. From Call History

You can use Truecaller app (an alternative Phone app) to send WhatsApp messages to unsaved numbers that are in your call history using the following steps:

  1. Open the Truecaller app on your Android or iOS phone.
  2. Find the number whom you want to message. Tap on the arrow next to their number/name to view the details.
  3. Scroll down and tap on the WhatsApp button to send a WhatsApp message to that number.

6. From a WhatsApp Group

You do not need to use any of the methods described above if you want to text a number that you saw in a WhatsApp group without saving it. You can directly message such a number from WhatsApp itself in two ways as shown below.

  1. Tap on the number present above the message sent by the user in the group chat.
  2. Select “Message” to open the chat thread automatically.
  1. Alternatively, tap on the group name at the top to open the group info screen. Scroll down to see the list of participants.
  2. Tap on “View all” or “See all”.
  1. Tap on the number to whom you want to message and hit the “Message” button.

How to start a WhatsApp chat without saving number as a contact

WhatsApp is, hands-down, the most popular messaging platform in the world. With over two billion monthly users, there’s a good chance that any person you might want to reach out to is available on the service. However, despite its popularity, the service lacks one key feature — the ability to message a number without adding them as a contact in your phonebook.

You might want to reach out to a business or service contact for a one-time chat, but adding the number to your phonebook would mean needless clutter. Let’s look at a few ways to initiate a WhatsApp chat without adding a phone number as a contact.

QUICK ANSWER

WhatsApp's wa.me short links can be used to launch a WhatsApp chat conversation without saving a contact. The same short links API is also used by apps like WhatsDirect or Click to chat to launch a new chat seamlessly. Creating a shortcut using the API to initiate a chat on an iPhone is possible.


JUMP TO KEY SECTIONS

  • Using WhatsApp short links
  • Use an app on Android
  • Using Shortcuts on iOS

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority

At first glance, it might appear that WhatsApp provides no way to initiate a conversation without saving a number. However, the service does have the functionality baked in. Presumably designed for integration in websites and apps, WhatsApp’s click-to-chat feature uses wa.me shortcut links to initiate a chat with any active WhatsApp account.

To use the function, head to your browser and type out the address https://wa.me/phonenumber. The phone number field should also include the country and region code, but no modifiers like + or -, or 00. For example, if you’re in India, the syntax would be https://wa.me/919911223344.

Tap enter and WhatsApp will point you to a website with a green message button. Tapping this button will drop you into the chat.

Use an app to launch a WhatsApp chat

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority

If the process above sounds needlessly convoluted, some apps exist that use the same functionality but make it much faster and easier to start a WhatsApp conversation without adding the contact to your phonebook.

WhatsDirect is one such app where you can enter the phone number and a chat message, tap send, and it’ll drop you right into the main messaging app. The app requires no permissions but does display ads in the interface. An alternative option is Click to chat, which performs the same function but drops the ads.

While the first method of using a wa.me link in the browser also works fine on an iPhone, there’s an even better way to WhatsApp chat without saving contact numbers on iOS. The Shortcuts app lets you set up a quick access way to input a phone number and get chatting right away.

  • Head over to the Shortcuts app and create a new shortcut.
  • For the first action, tap add action and search for ask for input.
  • Once selected, tap the action field and set it to ask for a number. Assign it an easy-to-remember label like phone number.
  • Now add a second action. For the second action, you’ll need to set it as a variable. In the first field, type out the same label as above. In this case, it will be called phone number. In the second field, select provided input. This will ensure the phone number, once added in, will be assigned to the specific field.
  • For our third action, select the URL option. In the URL field, enter http://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=91 and follow it up with the variable we assigned above. In this case, it will be the variable called phone number. Don’t forget to replace the 91 in our URL field with your country’s dialing code.
  • Finally, the fourth action is to launch the browser with the URL.

You can now add the shortcut to the home screen, launch it from Spotlight search or even use Siri to launch a chat without adding the contact.

How to send a message via WhatsApp without saving the recipient's number in contacts (Updated: two more ways)

X

Use Google search when it was necessary to write in WhatsApp to a person whose number we would not like to store in the contact list on our phone. You can, of course, add it to your contacts, and delete it after sending the message, but there is an easier and more reliable way to do this.

For this you will need:

  • Whatsapp app installed on your smartphone or tablet;
  • Any web browser.

To send a message to a subscriber whose phone number is not in your contacts list, you need to do the following:

Open any web browser on your smartphone and enter the following address in the web address or search field:

https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=хххххххххх

where ххххххххххх is the phone number of the recipient of your message in international format with the country and operator code, but without the + in front of it. For example: 19123123123 for the USA, 7

312312 for Russia, 380982312312 for Ukraine, etc. In this case, you will be redirected to a page where you will be prompted to send a message via WhatsApp to the number you specified:

All you have to do is confirm your consent to send a message to the number you need, and then dial it in the opened WhatsApp application text and send in the same way as you do when sending messages in chats with recipients from your Contacts.

The sender's number will not be saved in Contacts.

How to write to WhatsApp without adding a contact

The WhatsApp messenger is designed in such a way that its contact list is synchronized with the phone book of the device. If you delete some entry, then it will disappear from both places, the same applies to adding. In some cases, users have such a situation that they need to contact someone, but do not want to leave the person's data on their phone. In this article, we will figure out how to write in WhatsApp without adding contact , and is it possible to do this in principle. Let's look at this issue in more detail.

How to write to WhatsApp without adding a contact

The project policy is such that you can communicate closely with the user only if his phone number was in your phone book at the time of downloading the messenger, or was added later. Needless to say, how inconvenient it is?

In the process of using WhatsApp, the smartphone phone book is bursting with mobile numbers that you don't need. Therefore, the ability to calmly communicate with people, without clogging it with new records, would be handy.

However, the development team is in no hurry to please users with such a gift, so, unfortunately, there is no easy way. But there are a few workarounds worth mentioning.

If we have dealt with the conditions under which the above-mentioned functionality is relevant, we proceed to consider the practical implementation of the plan.

How to write a WhatsApp message to a stranger without saving a contact

There are several options, using which you can write text and voice messages, as well as send media files, to unfamiliar users. Let's see how you can bypass the project policy in a legal way.

Ref.

Despite the simplicity of the subtitle name and the complexity of the instructions below, the procedure is effective and works flawlessly. To implement our plans:

  1. Unlock your smartphone and open any browser.
  2. Enter the link https ://wa .me / in the address bar, and immediately after we write down the phone number of the person you want to contact in international format, but without the plus sign. If the leading digits are zeros, then it should be removed. Here is an example of a received link with a Russian number:
  3. We follow it in the same browser.
  4. On the new page, click on the button "Go to chat" .
  5. We agree to launch the messenger, if required.
  6. We immediately get into the WhatsApp correspondence window with the right person.

This is a universal way to write to WhatsApp without saving the number. It is suitable for all mobile devices (Android and iOS), as well as for the computer version of the messenger.

If everything is clear with this, then we move on.

Internet services

There is a simple Internet service with which you can write a message on WhatsApp to a specific user without saving his number to your phone. There are actually several, but whapp.info does the job perfectly and is ad-free.

Step-by-step instructions for using this service:

  1. Unlock the smartphone and tap on the browser icon on the desktop.
  2. Activate the address bar and go to the whapp.info website.
  3. In the page that opens, tap on the only input field, and enter the number of the future message recipient (we start dialing with the country code).
  4. We confirm the seriousness of intentions with the button "OK" .
  5. Select application WhatsApp if required.
  6. The full version of the messenger will open in a chat window with a specific user. Now you can write to him.

As you might guess, to implement this approach, it is important to know the mobile phone of the future recipient of messages. Using this Internet service is a great way to send a message to a number not from contacts in WhatsApp. But it doesn't end there. I would also like to mention a few other alternatives that you may find useful.

Using a third-party program

There are several applications on the web that will help you write a WhatsApp message without adding a contact. It is not entirely clear why the developers did not provide such an opportunity in the messenger itself, but there are third-party projects. Consider the features of each approach.

For ease of perception, let's break the further narration into several logical blocks.

Direct Message for WhatsApp for Android

This is a free application to write to WhatsApp without saving the number. Download it will come out of the official store.

  1. Launch the store « Play Market» from a shortcut on the desktop or from the main menu of the device.
  2. Activate the search bar at the top of the user window.
  3. Enter the name of the program Direct Message using the virtual keyboard and click on the search icon.
  4. Scroll through the issuance page until you find the desired object and open it.
  5. Tap on the button "Install" , we confirm the seriousness of intentions.
  6. We are waiting for the completion of the procedure.
  7. Activate the application from the shortcut on the desktop.
  8. On the start page, enter the phone number of the system participant, and in the bottom column - the text of the message, which will be automatically copied to the messenger.
  9. Activate the button Send .

As a result, a page of correspondence in WhatsApp with this user will be displayed. It remains to activate the field for entering a text message and start communication.

If everything is clear with writing letters without adding a contact to WhatsApp, then let's move on.

SendApp for iOS

To send a message to WhatsApp without adding a number on iPhone or iPad, you can use this application:

  1. Unlock the smartphone and tap on the icon App Store on the desktop.
  2. Activate the magnifying glass icon in the lower right corner of the screen.
  3. Using the search form, go to page SendApp .
  4. Downloading this application.
  5. Scroll through the page until you find the desired program.
  6. Activate the SendApp shortcut on the desktop.
  7. In the main field on the start page, enter the phone number of the selected user, starting with the country code.
  8. In the Message field, you can immediately write a text message in WhatsApp.
  9. We confirm the seriousness of intentions with the button Done .
  10. Activate the inscription Send to + user's phone number.
  11. A WhatsApp chat window will open automatically with the right person who is not in your contact list.

It's so easy to send WhatsApp messages without having to store tons of numbers in your phone book.

If everything is clear with this, then we move on.

How to send a message to a new contact

Consider the reverse situation where you need to add a number, or you already have one, in order to send text and voice messages to the selected user. The procedures differ slightly from version to version, so let's look at the features for two popular operating systems.

For the convenience of perception, let's break the further narration into several logical blocks.

Android

To add a new contact to WhatsApp and start chatting with him:

  1. Unlock the smartphone and tap on the messenger icon on the desktop.
  2. Go to the tab "Chats" .
  3. Tap on the green button in the lower right corner of the user window.
  4. In the new window, activate the button "New Contact" in the header of the page.
  5. Enter the person's data (name and number).
  6. Saving a new record.
  7. Go to the chat window.

Now activate the empty input field at the bottom of the user window. The virtual keyboard starts automatically, enter a text message, if desired, add a media file by activating the paperclip icon. We confirm the seriousness of intentions with the "Submit" button.

If we figured out how to write to a new user in WhatsApp on an Android device, consider the features of the procedure for iPhone.

To add a person from the phone book to the messenger and start communication, it is important that he has an account. If there are no questions with this, then:

  1. Unlock the smartphone and tap on the WhatsApp icon on the desktop.
  2. Go to the tab "Contacts" .
  3. Tap on the button in the form of a man with a plus sign in the upper right corner of the user window.
  4. In the window that opens, activate the item "Add contact" , the list of users on the network added to the phone book of the smartphone automatically opens.
  5. Scroll through the page until you find the right person.
  6. We confirm the seriousness of intentions, a chat window opens.

We activate the empty field at the bottom of the page for entering a text message, the plus sign on the left is responsible for adding media files by type of video, audio, pictures, documents or location scheme.

If this is all clear, then consider several factors that have a destructive effect on the implementation of the steps presented in the instructions above.

Problems and errors when sending messages without saving a contact

There are several factors that negatively affect the processes described in the instructions. Let's look at their features and methods for leveling the destructive.

For the convenience of perception, let's break the further narration into several logical blocks.

Unstable Internet

Although using a browser or third-party software to send text messages does not require a high connection speed, the lack of stability often leads to errors in ongoing processes. If you have such information, check your router settings, contact your ISP to find out the situation on the line. If mobile Internet is active, check the amount of available MB, top up your account if necessary.

Phone number

At the stage of entering a numerical sequence in the corresponding field of the browser or third-party software, make sure that the phone number of the selected user is entered correctly. Neglecting the check leads to finding a completely different person or the application simply throws an error.

Block

If you often use these methods of sending text messages, follow the rules of the system - do not insult participants, inciting any type of hatred is also punishable. If a user complains about you to the project administration, attach screenshots of the correspondence, then you, with a high degree of probability, will be banned.

Completion

Whatsapp developers have not implemented the ability to send text and voice messages without adding the user to the contact list. For months of communication, the phone book grows to a huge size, as new interlocutors appear. To fix this, there are several ways on the net.

Some use the workarounds of the official app, while others need the help of third-party apps. We recommend downloading them from official stores, as the risk of running into intruders who steal your WhatsApp account is much less.

The procedure itself is quite simple to implement - just a few taps on the function buttons, and entering the phone number of the right person in the appropriate field.

This can be a problem if the process is broken by a system error. Check the correctness of the entered numerical sequence, and also make sure that the Internet connection is working. Everything else should go smoothly.

Now it will be clear to you how you can send messages to WhatsApp without saving the number. Just choose the most comfortable way from all offered and use it.

How to write to WhatsApp to a subscriber without adding him to contacts — 4 ways

It happened that when buying something at an online flea market, the seller did not answer the call and I had to write to him on WhatsApp. But for the sake of a one-time message, I didn’t want to create a new contact in order to delete it later. Otherwise, the program would not send a message. The peculiarity of the messenger is that you can write to a person only after adding him to your contact list.

If you are suffering from the same problem, I will tell you how to bypass the program restriction and write to WhatsApp without adding the subscriber to contacts in four different ways. Of course, these are crutches, but I did not find another way out.

The first way: from the browser

This option requires skill and memorization of the algorithm of actions. But over time, it will not seem difficult. WhatsApp must be installed on the phone. To write to a person using a browser:

  1. Open a browser convenient for you on your smartphone.
  2. Copy the following link into the address bar: https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=XXXXXXXXXXX should be 7).
  3. Press the enter button and wait until the messenger window opens with a question about sending.
  4. Click the "Send message" button.

You will be redirected to WhatsApp and will be able to start a chat with a friend or stranger who is not in the phone book.

Second way: special software

If you are not afraid of a large number of applications in your phone, you can install one more. It will interact with the messenger and send messages to users who are not stored in the phone's memory. Google Play has the following apps:

  • Click to chat.
  • Direct Message for WhatsApp.
  • "Easy Message".

Open the installed application and enter the number of the person you want to send a message to. After that, a proposal will appear to launch WhatsApp, after which it will be possible to contact the addressee.

The third way: write to a number posted on the Internet

For Android Q and Android 9 Pie, the function of sending messages to a number located on the Internet is available. When you click on the number, a menu will open where the contact button via WhatsApp will be available. Click on it and start a conversation.

Special services

In fact, this site is a modification of the previous method. It doesn't matter what version of Android you have. Go to the http://whapp.info/ service, and a window will open in front of you, where you need to enter the subscriber number in the line.

If you are using the service from a computer, scan the QR code in the next window that opens, after opening it in the WhatsApp Web settings from your phone. Then you can start a dialogue. You can also access other existing chats from this window. The service is completely free.

Instead of a conclusion

Obviously, Facebook could have built the necessary functionality on its own. Its absence, in my opinion, is due to some contradictions at the legislative level. But the 4 described methods will allow you to send a message to an unfamiliar person, without adding them to contacts. No special knowledge is required.

If you know more - write in the comments, and I will definitely supplement the material.

Many thanks to the developers of WhatssApp for this messenger. I often send one-time SMS for work, and keeping in touch is at least inconvenient and there is nothing to do, so for me it was a real problem and I puzzled over how to send SMS without saving the contact. As we know, technology does not stand still, climbing on the Internet, I came across an article in which I found a way out for myself. Still, it is possible to send SMS without saving the contact, and even there is not one, but several ways, but I chose the right one for myself, you can send a message directly through the browser, you need to dial https://wa. me/7**********/ It is important that the number does not start with 8, but with 7 otherwise it will not work. This method works both on the phone and on the computer

I used to think about how to get customers from my site to write to me directly on WhatsApp without using a phone, for example, and for free. I tried a lot of things, but I did not find an unambiguously effective method. And it turns out there is! Now I will implement! I wonder what other WhatsApp APIs are capable of, but this one is definitely useful!

You helped me a lot! I work on the Internet, I sell goods, I often send one-time SMS notifications to customers, but I don’t want to save all the left contacts, I’m tired of cleaning them up later! I applied your second advice, installed the program on my phone and .. Heck! I can now write in whatsapp without adding a contact and without clogging up the phone book.

Didn't know. Thank you. Before that, you had to add it to contacts first, but it turns out you can write without it!))

A very useful article! At work, I often have to write to people from the Internet. Sometimes I don’t even know their names to write down the contact on the phone. You have made my job very easy. Thank you

I often send messages for work. I communicate with many people a day, a large number of calls, negotiations. The most convenient way for me to communicate in WhatsApp by phone number. This is the third method mentioned in the article. Indeed, it works on Android.

Ooh, thank you so much for the article, and I was surprised how strangers send me greetings from another city at all. Now it is clear.
I often sit on Avito and many people ask me to write to WhatsApp, I don’t really want to drive in the number first, then into the messenger, and then also delete unnecessary contacts.
After reading, I went in and downloaded the application for myself, as described in the 2nd version. I don't really understand, so I chose what I think is the easiest way.
Now it will be 100% easier.
Stop. A thought just occurred to me. And if a person does not know the phone number, how can he text me on WhatsApp?

An article that is very useful to me, and in general, I like it when everything is written clearly and to the point, without unnecessary deviations from the topic and water, you can quickly read it and go try it sooner. At work, I constantly have to communicate with clients on WhatsApp, and add them all to contacts, this is such a mess, most often I communicate with clients for no more than a day, and all contacts remain, then it’s impossible to find the right one. For myself, I will choose the first method, it will be necessary to adapt. But this is the best way out. And most importantly, I will finally be able to delete the numbers I don’t need and calmly communicate with customers without clogging up my phone book!

A useful, and most importantly, easy-to-read article, thanks to which I was able to significantly reduce the contact book on my phone and receive a lot of meaningless messages! I mainly use the application or through the browser if the phone is not at hand. In special applications, by the way, there is a very useful function «instant lock» contact, which is quite convenient when communicating with people promoting a product.

Wow, insanely helpful article. In fact, I myself very often meet with such a problem. Of course, I do not agree that the first and last method is faster and easier than just putting the phone in contacts and then deleting it. But, as for the second method, which involves simply installing an additional application, I liked this method more than the others. Simply because there are fewer problems.

How to write a WhatsApp message to a person who is not in contacts

Using the WhatsApp application, you can communicate with all subscribers from your contact list, while not spending a penny on a monthly fee. Without a doubt, this is a great alternative to regular SMS messages and calls, but what if you need to contact a person who is definitely registered with WhatsApp, but his phone number is not added to your contacts. From this article, you will learn everything about how to write in WhatsApp to a person who is not in the contacts of your smartphone.

How to write a WhatsApp message to a person who is not in contacts

If you are a WhatsApp user, then it is probably more customary for you to first add a phone number to your smartphone contacts so that it then appears in WhatsApp contacts. However, there is a completely opposite way, you can first save the user in your WhatsApp and only then in the phone's contact list, this is done like this:

  • First, open the WhatsApp application.
  • Then open the tab “ Contacts ”.

  • In the top right corner you should see a man icon with a plus sign next to it, click on it.

  • You will see a new window with fields to fill in, in which you will need to specify the name of the contact and his mobile phone number or a group of contacts).

  • After you have finished editing, you need to click on the “ Save ” button in the upper right corner.

After that you can send messages and call him.

You can also write to an unfamiliar number in WhatsApp without any problems if its owner texted you first. Sometimes it happens that someone sends you a message on WhatsApp, but the system does not recognize it. Despite the fact that you do not know either the name or number of this user, you can safely enter the chat with him and start a correspondence.

How to send a message via WhatsApp (whatsapp) without saving a contact

You probably know that you can chat on WhatsApp only with those users that you have in your contact list. This is not very convenient, because sometimes you just need to send a couple of messages to a person with whom you are not going to communicate in the future (for example, at work). The inability to send letters to users without adding them to contacts is probably the main disadvantage of the application, which has not yet been eliminated.

Luckily, there were some who were not indifferent and released third-party applications to help fix this problem. A huge number of such applications have already been released, but we will only talk about the most popular of them, WhatsDirect. How to send a message via WhatsApp (whatsapp) without saving a contact, using the Whats Direct application:

  • First, install the application (it is distributed free of charge through the Play-market and App-store).
  • When you launch the application for the first time, you will see a message asking you to accept the terms of the user agreement, press “ Continue .”
  • Then the tutorial will start, you can take it or skip it and just follow the instructions.
  • Anyway, you will be taken to the main screen, here you will need to enter the recipient's phone number (entered starting with the country code, but without the “+” symbol).

  • A little lower you will see another line where you must enter the message text, as well as two buttons “SENDTEXT” (if you want to send a text message) and “SENDMEDIA” (if you want to send a media file).
  • After pressing any of these buttons, you will be taken to the send message page of the WhatsApp application, where you just need to double-check the message and click the “ Send ” button.

After that, the message will be sent to the owner of the number you specified.

In addition to installing third-party applications on your phone, there is another way to write in whatsapp without adding a contact. You can send a message through the online application in the browser. Here's how to do it:

  1. Open a browser.
  2. In the address bar, enter the address “ https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone= ”, at the end of the address you need to indicate the phone number of the person you want to write to (with the country code and without the plus sign).
  3. By clicking “ Go to ” you will be taken to a page with a large green button in the center, click on it.
  4. After that, you will be redirected to WhatsApp, all the data will already be entered, you will only have to enter a message and press “ Send .”

The main advantage of this method is that you do not have to install anything extra on your phone, and that it is also suitable for PC. At first it may seem complicated, but after a couple of messages sent in this way, you will get used to it and will do everything automatically.
