Answer 1

you can use this code:

 Intent sendIntent = new Intent("android.intent.action.MAIN");
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.setPackage("com.whatsapp");
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
sendIntent.putExtra("jid", "9194******22" + "@s.whatsapp.net");// here 91 is country code
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Demo test message");
startActivity(sendIntent);
