How can you send what's app messages programmatically in android?

I am trying to implement a functionality similar to what Pushbullet does i.e reply to whats app messages programmatically without entering WhatsApp.

Any help will be appreciated, Thanks.

You cannot do it without entering whatsapp contact chosser screen, whatsapp doesnt provide any api for that.

See : WhatsApp Api Integration with Android

But you can bypass the system app chooser by using this Intent:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "My text to send.");
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
sendIntent.setPackage("com.whatsapp");
startActivity(sendIntent);

Look: https://www.whatsapp.com/faq/android/28000012 What's app doesn't have sdk, so without entering to What's App you can't.
