Answer 1

You can actually just easily create your own link and it will automatically handle it.

Immediately, you can create a chat with the number without adding them in your contact book.

Here is if you just want to create a chat. 15551234567 is your phone number with your country code as prefix, don't include the + sign.

Here is if you want to include a pre-filled text message.

https://wa.me/15551234567?text=Hello There. General Kenobi!
