WhatsAPI: Chat Without Saving

Need to message someone once and never again? Stop filling your address book with
one-off numbers.

WhatsAPI opens a WhatsApp chat with any phone number in the world without saving it
as a contact first. Pick the country, type the number, write your message, and tap
send. That's it.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Message any number instantly
Type or paste a number, choose a country from the list, and open the chat straight in
WhatsApp. Nothing is added to your contacts.

• 241 countries, always the right prefix
Pick your country once and it is remembered. The dial code is added for you, the
number is formatted as you type, and a bad number is flagged before you send.

• WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business
Switch between the two apps with one tap. Whichever you use, the chat opens there.

• Message templates
Four ready-made openers are built in, and you can save your own. Tap a template to
drop it into the message box: perfect for sellers, freelancers and anyone who writes
the same first line ten times a day.

• Share a wa.me link
Copy the link to your clipboard or send it to any app. Put it in your bio, your email
signature, your invoices or your online store, and customers can start a chat with a
single tap.

• QR codes
Turn any number into a scannable QR code and share it as an image. Print it on a
flyer, a menu, a receipt or a shop window; a phone camera opens the chat.

• Pick from your contacts
Already have the person saved? Grab the number straight from the contact picker. No
contacts permission is requested — the system picker hands over just the one number
you choose.

• Recent chats
Every number you open is kept in a short local list with the message you sent. Tap an
entry to load it again, tap the bin to drop one, or clear the whole list.

• Share-to-app support
Share a number or a piece of text from any other app into WhatsAPI and the fields are
filled in for you.

• Light and dark themes
A clean Material Design interface that follows your system theme, edge to edge.

• 11 languages
English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Japanese,
Korean and Chinese.

PRIVACY

Your data stays on your phone. Numbers, messages, templates and history are stored
locally and are never uploaded to us. There is no account and no sign-up. WhatsAPI
does not read your messages and cannot see your WhatsApp chats — it only builds a
standard wa.me link and hands it to WhatsApp.

The app is free and is funded by a banner ad served by Google AdMob, which may use
your device's advertising identifier. That is the only third-party service in the
app.

WHO IT IS FOR

Sellers on marketplaces, freelancers, delivery drivers, real-estate agents, support
teams, shop owners, and anyone who has ever saved a contact just to send one message.

REQUIREMENTS

WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business must be installed to open a chat. If neither is, you
can still copy or share the link and open it in a browser.

WhatsAPI is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected
to WhatsApp LLC or Meta Platforms, Inc. WhatsApp is a trademark of its owner.
