Unable to send WhatsApp messages using Siri I've been having a few issues with the way Siri and WhatsApp interact over the last few days. When I ask Siri to send a WhatsApp message, I get the reply "It seems that XXX doesn't have WhatsApp messages enabled" where XXX is the name of the contact I want to send the message to. I've tried a soft reset, uninstalling and reinstalling WhatsApp, and updating everything to the latest version (I installed iOS 17.6 this morning), but I'm still having the same problem. Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

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]
