Frequently asked questions
Does the recipient need my number saved?
No, scanning the code opens a WhatsApp chat with your number directly, they don't need to have it saved as a contact first.
Can I leave the message blank?
Yes, the pre-filled message is optional. Without one, scanning the code just opens a blank chat with your number.
Is my phone number sent anywhere?
No, this runs entirely in your browser using the qrcode library. The QR code is generated locally and nothing is sent to a server.
