3. Select the contact you want to send.

HOW TO SHARE A CONTACT FROM YOUR IPHONE CONTACT LIST

Another way to share contacts on WhatsApp is directly from the contact list on your iPhone. This is handy if you have a contact on your phone that doesn’t show up on WhatsApp.

1. Open your iPhone’s Contacts app and tap the contact you want to share.

2. On the Contact Detail page, tap Share Contact.

3. In the share options that appear, find and select WhatsApp.

4. Choose the WhatsApp contact you want to send the information to.

5. Then the contact opens, and you can tap the checkmark next to any information you don’t want to send to deselect it. When you’re done, tap Send.

HOW TO SHARE A CONTACT FROM YOUR ANDROID CONTACT LIST

Sharing a contact to WhatsApp directly from your Android contacts is slightly different from iPhone, but it isn’t any more difficult.

1. Open your Android’s Contacts app and tap the contact you want to share.

2. When the contact opens, tap the Share icon at the bottom of the screen.

3. Choose whether to share the contact as a File or Text in the message that appears. We recommend choosing the text option because this gives you the chance to delete any information you don’t want to share with your WhatsApp contact.

4. Find and tap WhatsApp in your sharing options.

5. Tap the contact you want to share the information with, and then tap the Send arrow.
