WhatsApp + Yowsup + Twitter = Social Alerts

[mrahmadt]

Hi

I developed small script using Yowsup and Twitter API to monitor any twitter account and send whatsapp message for any new tweets to my mobile, it seems to be working fine with me and I'm using it to get breaking news from BBC, CNN and other twitter accounts.

I would like to develop a complete web app that allow users to register and monitor any twitter accounts and receive whatsapp messages for any new tweets but my questions are:

1. Anyone knows any limitation in Whatsapp ? (e.g. limitation in number of messages whatsapp account can send per hour,day?)
2. Anyway to register fake whatsapp accounts (in order to use it to send whatsapp messages)?
3. Anyway to use yowsup and whatsapp mobile client (app) in the same time for the same account?

Thanks

Seems like an interesting project :)

1- Someone reported 250/day, but I'm not sure

2- You need a real phone number as you you receive registration code for new numbers only by SMS or voice

3- It's only possible if you figure out your account's password on phone. You can do that by capturing the received password while your phone is registering, or if you figure out where your password is stored on phone. However, in case you haven't recently updated your android/symbian/iphone client, then you might have some luck using the "--v1" flag to force using the deprecated password generation through its IMEI/MAC. But again it would only work with outdated clients as they still use the IMEI /MAC based password.

it seems I will not be able to make this script easy for normal users

anyway I just created a new repository for this script @ https://github.com/mrahmadt/WhatsTwitter please check it and let me know if you have any comment

BTW I'm not python developer so the code maybe not that good :)

It seems interesting and I have already developed such thing but now i am facing problems: I was registering real accounts using the the .net api that allows me to enter my own password and then I won't be able to send from phone (it doesn't matter for me) but now when i try to register a new account the server respond with fail old version!! and can't use the password generated from the yowsup in that api!! the issue of limitation in number of sending messages till now can't be determined but i was blocked by 2 accounts of mine after i tried to send more than 5000 msgs per day now I reduce the number of sent messages and it is working fine @mrahmadt can u help me to find a solution for either using the password of yowsup in the .net api developed by @perezdidac or making the register function work properly because @perezdidac is not responding at all to the issues posted in the https://github.com/perezdidac/WhatsAPINet ?

thanks a lot I can help you as much as I can

@kingk110 i am also facing the same issue, my accounts are getting blocked even after sending 1000 msg/day. how you are managing the API calls by sending 5000 msg/day. how seconds you are waiting between each msgs? are you able to register new accounts?

thanks in advance.

I was able to register new accounts using the .net api and using a password of mine but now it says old version. I can create new account and get password form the server but i am not able to use it in the .net api. Thank GOD till now I am not blocked and hope that whatsapp is not seeing these comments ;) I am using a delay of 1 sec between sending another msg. This delay is too long but I should use it to prevent blocking. I didn't count the number of messages that I can send but it is more than 5000 a day. Do you have any idea about how to use the password of the yowsup in .net?
