Add and import contacts
Add a single contact by hand or import many at once from a spreadsheet file.
Your contacts are the people you chat with, and you can add them one at a time or bring in a whole list from a file.
Steps
- Open WA.cr and go to Contacts.
- To add one, tap Add contact.
- Enter a name and number, like +91 98765 43210.
- Save the contact.
- To add many, tap Import.
- Choose your spreadsheet or CSV file.
- Match the columns and confirm the import.
Import from a spreadsheet
A spreadsheet or CSV file lets you add hundreds of people at once. Keep one row per person, with a name and a number written like +91 98765 43210. WA.cr will ask you to match each column, so your details land in the right place.
If it doesn't work
- If a number is rejected, write it in full with the country code.
- If the import skips rows, check those rows have a valid number.
- If a contact looks duplicated, search first to merge or edit it.
