Whatsapp share button

Please note that Whatsapp is a Mobile based service and cannot be added to any Website and there is no such button available.

Thanks for your answer. I have a few mobile sites for which a whatsapp share button would be more then excellent! I hope you put this feature request in your roadmap. Thanks, Jack

I just read this articel, which i translated in english:

‘Share via WhatsApp popular than via Twitter’

Content sharing we do, preferably via email, Twitter and Facebook, but there’s a new ‘kid on the block’: WhatsApp. A sports website of USA Today put a WhatsApp-share button on his site, and now gets 18 percent of site traffic via chatapp. More than via Twitter.

Twitter is responsible for thirteen percent of traffic to FTW, Facebook for 34 percent and 35 percent of e-mail. Content Director Jamie Mottram there to see for yourself. “This has opened our eyes.”

Thanks for the information.

The implementation of WhatsApp button is under development and will be available in couple of weeks(tentative).
Please note that WhatsApp is a Mobile based service and cannot be added to any Website. It can be accessed from Mobile devices only.
You will get an option to add the button from the menu, but it will be shown on Mobile devices only and not on the normal site.

Hi, any news on this subject. Thanks, Jack

Hey Jack,

We are glad to inform you that we have implemented the WhatsApp button in our list. But currently it is available on iOS devices only. Please take a look.

Thanks! This works great! Just tested on my iphone. I only have one remark. If you share a page via whatsapp, the send button is not directly shown in the whatsapp app. This happens as soon you put some text behind the link. It would be nicer if the send button is displayed from the beginning.

Again thanks! Jack

Strange, when i test it now it works fine!

Great!
We appreciate it, if you close the thread if you are satisfied with the resolution.
