KaiOS - Share using WhatsApp

I'm trying to develop an app for KaiOS where I want to share text messages with WhatsApp.

I tried with deep-links like:

  • app://whatsapp/send
  • whatsapp://send

Both didn't work.

Does anyone know how share content with WhatsApp?

Solution

  • I've finally managed to send a text message thanks to KaiOS and Whatsapp teams. This is the way to do it :

    
const phoneNumber = "0123456789"
const urlEncodedMessage = "SentFromKaios"

const sendTextMessageActivity = new MozActivity({
  name: "view",
  data: {
    type: "url",
    url: `https://wa.me/${phoneNumber}?text=${urlEncodedMessage}`
  }
})
