Did you know that you can open a chat in WhatsApp with any number without having to save it first in your contacts? Simply open the link 'wa.me/123456789' (using the desired prefix+number) in your browser.

Originally, that link was longer and more difficult to remember, so I created this small app to simplify the process.

Since then, I have added multiple functionalities such as entering a message, sharing a link, providing a list of country codes, creating shortcuts, saving recent and pinned chats, opening recent calls via an add-on, and more. These additions have been made keeping the following three principles in mind:

1. Keeping the app as small as possible. This means no unnecessary content, libraries, or features. Currently, the app's size is around 100KB, which is smaller than a standard-sized picture!
2. Using as few permissions as possible. The only permission used is the 'create_shortcut' permission, with no additional permissions for calls, storage, or internet access.
3. No ads. The app does not contain any ads, adware, spyware, user tracking, or other intrusive elements.

If you are looking for a small tool to help you open numbers in WhatsApp, give this app a try. However, if you prefer an app that shares your data with Google, there are clones available in the market.
