[APP][Pro] WhatsApp - Simple. Reliable. Private

You cant, you can only see if you received the message

first of all thanks for this app!!

But i have a question, i created my device and it works like a charm. But i have one problem, when sending a message to (my own) number i am not being notified on my phone.
Did/do you have/had the same problem? and how did you solve it?

@Yustmenl you don’t get notifications from messages you send form your own number. So you need to use another number if you want to receive notifications. That’s how WhatsApp works

thanks i was affraid of this, but how did you guys solve this? get a prepaid? or something else?

Yeah get a prepaid and use WhatsApp Business so you can have 2 whatsapp instances on your phone:)

Multi account on whatsapp just got released two days ago, don’t know if there are Os/geo restrictions yet but soon to come either way :+1:t2::+1:t2::+1:t2:

Still working on the rollout (Whatsapp), this happens automatically in updates, after which it is possible to add multiple numbers from your e-SIM in the normal WhatsApp. This means that you no longer have to use a WhatsApp company. But actually just put a one-time prepaid e-SIM card in your phone and use it for Homey in combination with your own WhatsApp, so you have 2 or 3 accounts in your normal WhatsApp. And you don’t have to use all the business stuff. As far as I’m concerned, the perfect solution for WhatsApp and Homey :+1:

Is it possible to remove the landline blocking? WhatsApp does officially support landlines (at least for WA business, see https://faq.whatsapp.com/1344487902959714). I would like to use this app for my business account on a landline.

@Erwins its not really a blocking. Its just not implemented :wink:

Will have a look

New app update (:orange_square: TEST: 1.19.0):

Changelog:

NEW:
1: NEW: Allow Landline phonenumbers

FIXES:
1: None




If you find any issues, send a report via the mobile homey app

More - apps - Whatsapp - settings wheel right top - send diagnostic report (put your email in the input field to make it easier)

sadly I’m getting this error when trying to couple my whatsapp-number


any ideas?

@TMS_TMS i need a bit more info on this.

  • Which Whatsapp version in Homey
  • Did you get a notification when you filled in your number
  • Did you try via mobile homey app or homey webapp (webapp works better)

hi Martijn,

  • Which Whatsapp version in Homey → v1.18.3
  • Did you get a notification when you filled in your number → yes I did, got this pop-up on my iPhone:

after clicking ā€˜bevestig’ I entered the code from the (homey) whatsapp-app after which I got the error ā€˜kan apparaat niet koppelen’ (on my iPhone).

  • Did you try via mobile homey app or homey webapp (webapp works better) → via Homey webapp
