I need to send a message to all my contacts (309 phone numbers) via WhatsApp.

Is there a way to send a message for all my contacts, because the application just allows 25 contacts at once?

Use the broadcast function, see: http://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/android/23130793

  1. Open WhatsApp
  2. Press the [Menu Button]
  3. Tap [New broadcast]
  4. Type your contacts' names or press the [+] button to choose from your contact list
  5. Tap [Next]
  6. Type your message and optionally attach media
  7. Tap the send button

  • will it send the message an an individual message to all, or a group message? will they come to know that it has been sent to others too? – user2798227 May 06 '14 at 13:43
  • No, others will be unaware about your broadcast. They will get message in separate chat. – yahska Feb 11 '15 at 05:58

    But limitation of this is, If user added in broadcast is not having your number saved in his contact list, he may not get your message. – yahska Feb 11 '15 at 05:59

I don't think this is possible since it's a limitation of the app itself. The best you can do is to put a status message so everyone can see, but you won't know for sure. Or you message them in groups of 25.

Easiest is to select:

  1. Chat icon at the bottom screen
  2. Broadcast list OR new Group at the top screen
  3. Create your contacts
