Or alternatively is there a way to hook into the function and prepend the “00” at the beginning of the paramter in the link?

Dear jmatiasmastro

Did you test the issue with the WhatsApp Web App on Chrome Browser for Mac?

It seems to be a browser issue. The best solution would be to add the zeros at the beginning of the number, which actually is the official format. That way it will work on all clients.

Can you check this with your developers?

Thanks and best regards

Dear @jmatiasmastro
Unfortunately the Problem still persists. On some browsers (i.e. Chrome Browser on macOS 12.6.1) the whatsapp web client shows the message that the number is not valid. As described in my initial post, the zeros at the beginning of the number gets cut out when saving the phone number in the field. The alternative format with the “+” at the beginning does not get accepted.
Can you confirm that numbers beginning with zeros or “+” cannot be saved?
