WhatsApp #113

Hello, I'm interested in WhatsApp support for Ushahidi. I saw in the presentation that this messenger is supported, however, on a quick check I didn't find it in the source. Did I oversee this code, or is the plugin still on the ToDo list? Thank you

ping @dkobia is this planned for Ping? We haven't planned this for Ushahidi V3, but provider code written for Ping may be reusable.

@rjmackay Yes it is planed, but WhatsApp has an elusive system, no official API, and some unofficial ones so there are no guarantees. We will however try.

Thank you for the information. While you are at it, you might try Viber as well. At the very least there are "spy" apps, which claim to read Viber messages on rooted Androids.

Regards, Tobias
