Awesome idea! Looking forward to test it!

Pretty useful for the launch of a new product, to inform your network via WhatsApp!👌🏻

Hi Danny thanks for your message, 1 - This will work yes. But you need to have the contacts on your contact list 2 - There is no limit 3 - You need to create a group in WhatsBlast and select the contacting from your list, there is no way to upload a CSV. Unfortunately I was asked to close the app (find more info here: https://medium.com/@sandoche/why...) Otherwise I would have improved it with CSV or I may have built a web version with CSVs. You may be able to find some apk on google but it's illegal.

Hello people 👋! When I was a student I used a lot group bulk messages to invite my friends for a party or a dinner. After lot of trial and error I noticed that a customized message with their name on it got a lot more answers than just a generic invitation message. That is why I built recently the app TextBlast, a bulk customize SMS app. However, nowadays people are using more and more WhatsApp instead of the traditional SMS. That is why I am proudly releasing today WhatsBlast. WhatsBlast helps you to send personalized mass messages easily using your friend's name (with the option of editing before sending). It will take you 5 minutes instead of 5 hours ! I hope you like it and also helps you to save some time WhatsBlast is perfect for marketing and communication campaigns on WhatsApp ! *Note that it's not 100% automated, WhatsBlast prepares and prefils your messages for each contact, but you will still have to press the sending button ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nice, I was waiting for Whats app support and you made it, thanks a lot!!

Do recipients have the ability to opt-out of future messages from the sender?

How are you dealing with a privacy issue ?

Very nice product! I will test it today and let you guys know. I see a lot of potential! Congrats!

Hey Sandoche, Loved the idea and the concept! Couldn't find anything like it. While researching about the idea, I found this--> https://m.economictimes.com/tech... I would like to get your opinion on it! And how would this if or if not, affect your startup!

Very good update from TextBlast! I know in countries like France where SMS were free and unlimited everyone was (and is still) using the traditional SMS, but for example in Spain we only use WhatsApp. It's the most popular messaging app in the world, this is a good move!! 😊 good work!

AND it would NOT be harm to build custom messaging groups or logical/virtual group of contacts saving the time of picking and choosing the contact groups.

Have longed for such a product to make it to the market. However, this solution wouldn't be complete with a scheduler and some templatized messaging in-built for sending out event-specific wishes and recurring reminders. Is that something that the product team at WhatsBlast would be factoring in or are these features already part of the product roadmap and would be rolled out in the features list in the future?

OMG that’s a cool app !! And much needed !!

Did a quick try. But couldn't customize the friend group once I added a person to that list.

I have more then 4600 contacts in groups. But in this programme, it's just one big list. And can not find a new in a search. You have to scroll down, that's useless

Is it available for Windows ?

@sandochee I have already sent a link to a friend that organizes meetups on meetup(dot)com. If you have not already, then I would suggest targeting event organizes on meetup and eventbrite.

I wish it could send the message automatically instead of having to manually send each one. But I like the concept.

Loss of money. Large text splitted and not going full msgs.

I've been waiting for this. Instant superuser. Contact me for in debth feedback.
