Are you someone who uses Whatsapp frequently and has to send messages to
unknown numbers often? Are you frustrated for saving them first in your
contact list knowing that you may not even have to contact them again?
Ever wonder if there could be a solution for this and you may not have
to save the number ever again but still can send them messages? Then
this post is for you. I'm here to bring to your attention a tiny app
called Click to Chat! Yes, you heard it right! This tiny app can allow
you to send Whatsapp messages without saving the number thereby,
allowing you to keep your contact list clean. Please note, the app only
allows you to search their numbers in Whatsapp and your messages will
still be sent from the Whatsapp only giving you the same privacy and app
doesn't store any data it only functions as a link between you and Whatsapp.
Playstore description:
Did you know you can open a chat in WhatsApp with any number without
saving first into contacts by opening in your browser the link
'wa.me/123456789' (using the prefix+number desired)?

Originally that link was longer and more difficult to remember, 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.
