WhatsApp has gained massive traction since its inception in 2009. The mobile messaging application, known for its ease of use, has helped billions of people communicate with each other worldwide. However, there are times when you may not have access to the internet, and you still need to send messages to your contacts. In such situations, Bluetooth can be an effective way to send WhatsApp messages. Below, we will discuss how to send WhatsApp via Bluetooth.
Requirements
First, you will need a Bluetooth-enabled device, such as a smartphone or a laptop. You will also need to ensure that the Bluetooth on your primary device is turned on. For instance, if you intend to send a WhatsApp message from your smartphone, ensure that Bluetooth is turned on.
Pairing Devices
The next step is to pair the devices. This can be achieved by going to the settings of your smartphone, laptop or whichever Bluetooth-enabled device you're using. Ensure that your device is "discoverable" by other devices. Once your device is discoverable, search for it on the other device you want to pair with. The Bluetooth pairings will vary with different devices, but generally, once you locate the device on the list of available devices, click on it, and an option to connect will appear. Click on connect to pair the devices.
Note:
Ensure that both devices are in close proximity during the pairing process. The distance between the two devices should not exceed 10 meters, and there should be no obstructions between the devices.
Sending The WhatsApp Message
Now that the devices are paired, open WhatsApp on your primary device, which is the device you're sending the message from. Select the contact you intend to send the message to, type your message, and click send. On the popup menu, select "share" and select from the list of paired devices. Select the paired device you want to send the message to, and the message will be sent.
Note:
Ensure that WhatsApp is installed on both devices for the process to be successful.
Summary
To send WhatsApp messages via Bluetooth, ensure that both devices are Bluetooth-enabled and paired. Open WhatsApp on the primary device, select the contact, type your message, and click send. Select "share" on the popup menu, select the paired device, and the message will be sent. It is best to note that sending messages via Bluetooth may not be as fast as the traditional method, and due to the limited range of Bluetooth, the devices should be in close proximity for the process to be successful.
