Introduction
WhatsApp is a free application for texting and video calling. It allows users to send messages for free to anyone in the entire world. In this article, we will show you how we can send message on WhatsApp without saving the number to your contact list.
If you noticed, you must first add the phone number to your phone’s contact list in order to send a message to it. The contact or phone number will only then show up on your WhatsApp contact list only after you have added the number to your phone’s contact list.
There are times that you only want to send a message to a phone number and won’t send to that number again. For example, you will only ask your taxi driver for directions once. Saving it to your contact list is pointless because you might never need to get in touch with it again.
Fortunately, there are some tricks that you can use to send message to any phone number without saving it to your contact list.
How to Send WhatsApp Message Without Saving the Number
Method 1 : Using Third-Party Apps
There are quite a number of apps that you can download from the Google Play to send message via WhatsApp without saving the phone number to your contact list. If you search for “whatsapp no contact”, you will find a list of apps that does that.
One of them is the “Direct WA, without contact” app which is for Android and you can download it from here. Another great app is the https://easymessage.app/ which is available for both Android and iOS.
Method 2 : By Sending a Message to Yourself
You can actually send a message to yourself by searching “you” in the search box.
Enter or paste the unsaved phone number you want to text and send it to yourself. Phone number below is just an example, you do not need to include the ‘+’ or country code in front of the number.
The phone number is now shown in your chat. Simply tap on the number and choose the “Chat with phone number>” option. Then, it will display the chat window for that unsaved number. The number can now be easily messaged without being added to your contact list.
Method 3 : By Using Google Chrome
If you frequently uses WhatsApp on your desktop, you may try this easy method. This method works on mobile phones as well.
Simply open the Chrome browser or any other browser on your mobile or PC. Then type in “http://wa.me/<phone number>” in your browser’s address bar. Replace “<phone number>” with the actual number that you want to send message to.
Once you hit enter, it will ask you to open up your WhatsApp application.
Finally, just click “Open WhatsApp” or “Continue to Chat” to send message to the phone number that you’ve entered in the address bar.
Conclusion
For a very long time, WhatsApp didn’t allow users to send messages to specific phone numbers. A new number had to be saved to contacts before you could communicate it on WhatsApp Messenger.
The methods above will help you to send message to any phone number on WhatsApp without saving it to your contact list. Hope you will find these tips useful.
