Hi,

I was trying to make a spam app for Whatsapp. (Evil :]) I would like to know if I can send multiple messages at the same time like DoS. Please tell me if I can do that or not ,thanks!

I think, there is a good reason why something like this is not possible...

Hi,

This is not possible from App Inventor or through any other app, as WhatsApp doesn't provide a mechanism to send text to someone without the interaction of the user (to pick a contact to send the message to). If you are interested in sending messages though WhatsApp, have a look at this tutorial here:


If you still prefer a action-less method (that's not at all related to AppInventor), you can use Google Now to send messages using voice. Tap the mic and speak "send a whatsapp message to [my brother] | [any contact] (message).
Eg: Send a whatsapp message to my brother i'll call you in few minutes.

and this will send a message without any further interactions. Other way to implement your evil idea ;) would be to code a custom app that modifies WhatsApp database on a rooted device. Unfortunately, none of the said methods could be accomplished through AppInventor.

Regards.

Okay... I found another way not using Whatsapp ,but Hangouts. I used a clock to send Hangouts messages repeatedly. Here is a photo.
