Did you know you can open a chat in WhatsApp with any number without saving first into contacts by entering it on the search box inside WhatsApp itself? Source: https://faq.whatsapp.com/1183494482518500
Originally you needed to use a long and difficult to remember link, so I made this tiny app to help in the process.
Since then I have added multiple functionalities (enter message, share link, list of country codes, create shortcut, save recent and pinned, open recent calls via add-on, and a few more) but always with these three principles: 1) Make the smaller app possible. This means no extra unrelated content, no extra libraries and no useless things. Currently its size is around 100KB=0.1MB. Less than a standard picture! 2) Use as few permissions as possible. Only the create_shortcut permission is used, nothing else! (no calls, no storage, no internet). 3) No ads. I hate ads. I will never add ads, adware, spyware, user tracking or other nasty stuff.
If you want a small tool to help you open numbers in WhatsApp, try it. If you prefer an app that sends your data to Google, there are clones out there.

I use this app often, and I love it! I use it to use WhatsApp without adding new numbers to my contacts. It is just great, please never stop to exist. Thank you!
