: Chat with numbers not saved in the address book
Facilitation of Chats with Unknown Numbers on WhatsApp
WhatsApp has introduced a new option that significantly simplifies interacting with phone numbers not in your address book. You can now start a conversation directly without having to first save the contact to your Android or iPhone device. This innovation has been officially launched and will gradually be rolled out worldwide, simplifying the communication process and eliminating unnecessary steps. Here's how this option works and how to make the most of it as soon as it's available on your device.
Communicate Quickly with Unsaved Numbers
You've probably needed to communicate with a phone number you don't have in your address book, perhaps just for a brief WhatsApp interaction. For example, you might need to arrange a pickup for an item you purchased online or to make a quick reservation. Often, these numbers end up stored in your address book, taking up space without any real future use. With WhatsApp's new option, the process is simplified:
1. Tap the new message icon, located at the bottom right on Android and at the top right on iPhone.
2. Enter the contact number in the search bar.
3. Even if the number is not in the address book, it will still be recognized and dialable.
4. Tap the number and the conversation will open immediately.
Additionally, if the recipient has set their profile photo to public, it may be visible in search results. If you want to keep your profile photo private, it's recommended to limit its visibility to contacts in your address book using your privacy settings.
How to Get the New Feature
To take advantage of this useful feature immediately, make sure you keep your WhatsApp applications updated to the latest available versions. While it may take some patience to wait for new features, staying up-to-date also ensures further innovations and contributes to the overall security of your WhatsApp usage.
Simplify your chats on WhatsApp
In short, WhatsApp: Chat with Numbers Not Saved in Your Address Book. This new option eliminates the need to temporarily add contacts to your address book just to send a message. Take advantage of this innovation to simplify your chat and communication experience on WhatsApp, while always staying up to date with the latest versions and new features.
