Paste this link(after putting their number) in a chat with yourself (https://wa.me/your-number-with-the-country-code https://wa.me/your-number-with-the-country-code) and just click the link.

- ffpip 5y ago> or it'd be a built in feature It is a built in feature. People can generate wa.me URLs for their account in settings. That is a domain owned by WhatsApp. It's not some unofficial service.

The URL feature is so you can embed it in your social profiles or whatever and people can message you from there. It's just really hacky to use it as a method of initiating a chat if it's not already a link you can just click on.
