Unable to send a WhatsApp message via Siri on iPhone Can't start a WhatsApp message via Siri, Siri indicates that the person I want to send a message to “has not enabled WhatsApp messages”. Strange thing is that I can physically send a message to that person. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

I am not able to send WhatsApp messages via Siri after iOS 17.4.1 update Siri problem Hi there, Using 14PM on latest iOS 17.4.1 and WhatsApp latest here in UK. I’m no longer able to send WhatsApp messages via Siri. This was very handy whilst driving. I’m trying to figure out what caused this? I have factory reset the phone totally and setup from scratch and Siri still comes up with: I’m having trouble/having a problem, please try later or similar errors. Can someone please tell me it’s not only me? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

WhatsApp no longer working with Siri Whenever I try to send a message using Siri via WhatsApp on my iPhone or watch I get a response saying the recipient hasn't got WhatsApp turned on. Siri works with iMessage and other apps fine so it can't be Siri, my phone or the watch and I can use WhatsApp fine on the phone if I manually type a message but I need to be able to utilise this function. Just wondering if anyone else had this particular issue?

You will need to contact WhatsApp for help with their software, this is not an Apple product.

Here is a link to their help page.

To fix the problem, you have to:

Open WhatsApp app on your iPhone > Settings > Privacy > Screen Lock > “Require Face ID” / “Require Touch ID”. Disable it.

I had the same problem. It works with me.

I hope it’s helpful.
