WhatsApp Email Messaging Links

Question

I have a link for sharing WhatsApp:

<a href="whatsapp://send?text=How to become our friend%20https://smartmother.me/pages/top-5-baby-s-first-week-tips/" target="_blank" data-action="share/whatsapp/share">WhatsApp a friend now&nbsp;»</a> 

I am sending a link using HTML emails. When I open the letter, the link does not work. I use Klaviyo for my letters.

Here is my link in the email I received (opened with Crome DevTools) http://prntscr.com/dbgbj6 As you can see, it broke.

I spent a lot of time finding a solution to the problem, but the answer was never found. Who knows the solution to this problem? Tell me please!

Answer 1

It works great with a mobile browser when there are no spaces in the link (if they are converted to dash "-", but not in + not %20 and neither + because somehy whatsapp translates that for spaces and it breaks the link).

Try simply removing %20 in front of the url.
