Dear All, just I downloaded & installed whatsapp on my PC.
I did not find how to create a new group & add new contact numbers in this installed software.
Can you please guide how to add bulk numbers in this PC based whatsapp.

Hi Dhanush, welcome to AndroidPIT :)

unfortunately you can't add any contacts on WhatsApp in the desktop version. That only works on the phone.

Liebe Grüße, Bastian

Sir, thank you for your information.
I am not familiar with smartphone and knowledge about whatsapp minimum.
Can you please guide me whether we can upload bulk numbers into whatsapp contract even in smartphone.
If such provision is there, it makes my work somewhat easy

Hi,

as far as I know, WhatsApp is not meant for that kind of stuff, at least for now. But I never wanted to upload multiple numbers at the same time. WhatsApp is, however, using the phonebook of your smartphone to find contacts. So I would try to simply get all needed numbers into your phonebook and see if WhatsApp recognizes all of them.

Liebe Grüße, Bastian

I just found a way! so simple thanks to Google as always!

Just log in to your chrome with an account you have logged in on your phone.
Open Google Contacts on Chrome on desktop. Create one or multiple contacts. Get back to your Whatsapp web. Search the contact you already saved. Start texting!

Best way imo is to make a wa .me link, and add the phone number and open in your browser.
