Adding a number #105

Open KopiasCsaba opened 1 year ago

KopiasCsaba commented 1 year ago

Hello!

I'm quite new to whatsapp, so it could be simple ignorance on my part, but I did not found a way to add a contact with a phone number.

Please help me, or fix it if it is a bug!

Thank you for this app!

I have researched this a bit, and I can't really fathom why it is like that, but it seems there is no way to add a contact from the web interface. (Maybe they want to get your precious contact list from the app, as even the app doesn't allow to add a contact IF you deny access to your contacts list.)

BUT! Check out this: https://faq.whatsapp.com/5913398998672934

So with a specially crafted link, it is possible to add a contact: https://wa.me/1XXXXXXXXXX

This could be an extra option in the drawer, or something.
