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?
Try updating WhatsApp
I had this issue for a couple weeks it was driving me mad.
I literally just updated WhatsApp about 10 minutes ago and it seems to have fixed it

I’m also having this issue. It came from a WhatsApp update about two or three days ago and anticipation of the release of iOS 17.6. I actually installed 17.6 and that did not change the situation. basically when I engage Siri and I say it to send a WhatsApp message to so-and-so….. She tells me that so-and-so does not have WhatsApp. Clearly very different experience than a couple days ago I used to love dictating WhatsApp messages messages in the car.
Seems to be a WhatsApp bug. See https://www.reddit.com/r/whatsapp/s/KxAJ2zScJg
Same problem over here. I hope it will be resolved soon
I was having the same issue and followed the advice in this thread (updated the version of WhatsApp on my iPhone via the App Store).
this seems to have resolved the issue.
