Answer 1

the country key must be there. 00 will not work, it must be + sign followed by the country key then the number ie +310433885282. 00310433885282 won't work. Note that on Android you can only send a 'text' and 'url' directly to someone, so files are ignored.

By phone number (since 5.3.0)

<button onclick="window.plugins.socialsharing.shareViaWhatsAppToPhone('+31611111111', 'Message via WhatsApp', null /* img */, null /* url */, function() {console.log('share ok')})">msg via WhatsApp to phone number +31611111111</button>

By abid (iOS) or phone number (Android)

<button onclick="window.plugins.socialsharing.shareViaWhatsAppToReceiver('101', 'Message via WhatsApp', null /* img */, null /* url */, function() {console.log('share ok')})">msg via WhatsApp for Addressbook ID 101</button>
