View submission: How to use WhatsApp on dumbphones

View parent comment

There hasn't been much interest. I wouldn't recommend it for business-critical communication, given https://www.reddit.com/r/dumbphones/comments/1e6zf4z/comment/ldwsvek/[1][2] (for business use cases, it'd likely be better to build something on top of the official business platform https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/[3][4] )

That's fair! Might instead try and snag a cheap KaiOS device for use with chooj then, unless that runs the same risk? My business is not exactly crítical, it's more customers tend to text me through Whatsapp to make/confirm appointments. I carry an iPad with WhatsApp logged in as well for longer messages but I don't like pulling that out too often.
