In my android app I want user to send app link via whatsapp to his friends. I was able to send message but I have to store receiver's phone number too so that if his friend(receiver) installs the app the sender will be rewarded. Here is my code for sending whatsapp message :
Intent waIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
waIntent.setType("text/plain");
String text = "link to app";
waIntent.setPackage("com.whatsapp");
if (waIntent != null) {
//waIntent.
waIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, text);//
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(waIntent, "Share with"));
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "WhatsApp not Installed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
When user is done with sending the message, I want to store the receiver's phone number. What should I do for that? Also if there is any other way of doing referral via whatsapp then do tell.

Well ultimately the aim was to reward the user if his whatsapp referred friend installs the app which I finally did using Google Analytics Campaign Measurement.
Link for that How could I implement referral program for app users in Android market?
