WhatsApp Spammer
Repeat Messages in Succession Without Saving Number or Opening WhatsApp
What this shortcut does
I came up with this iOS Shortcut specifically for WhatsApp after failing to find one post scourging through the internet like text-bomber or message spammer for iMessage, and with some additional nifty features integrated as well. WhatsApp Spammer ↳ Manually enter your desired number of cycles to perform. Unleash a cluster of WhatsApp Messages in succession ✓ Send messages without having to deal with the Official App ✓ Automatically grab the number from clipboard by just copying beforehand ✓ Permissions: Clipboard & WhatsApp Note: Nothing else is required to run this Shortcut other than to check updates form. Copy the (WhatsApp) number before running the shortcut to automatically set the recipient instead of having to individually save the contact which can still be edited for flexibility incase of a mistake. Set your default country code which is a one time setup when running the Shortcut for the first time. 'Always Allow' Permissions would be suggested in order to automate the process without any interruption of asking user's input while running. Demo : Video Note to websites: In order to avoid any broken version of stagnant iterations being spread to the public in perpetuity - Please, avoid sharing the direct download link over linking to the hosting page as iCloud reassigns a new identity every time a version is shared, completely cutting off its previous version as unique even if it's the same Shortcut by the user thereby leaving no way to update. "Why doesn't this have a Contact Choosing Menu aka show WhatsApp Contact List?" Answer: The first unique ability of this Shortcut comes by three features for the same workaround with the first two being either manually entering a number after running this Shortcut or simply copying a number in the clipboard before running this Shortcut (where it will grab the number automatically) allowing not needing to save a number itself and then backing up to iCloud which means one can also initiate a conversation on WhatsApp without creating a new contact as an additional benefitting feature. WhatsApp is owned by Facebook which comes under Meta, a contact choosing menu only opens up the system contacts instead of your WhatsApp contact list as 'Shortcuts' is more like an automation (or 'Tasker' if you're from Android) than an app itself where dedicated APIs have to be allowed by first parties in question in order to access this as a feature outside of WhatsApp which is why this Shortcut in itself is a unique offering.
