I can’t send SMS through WhatsApp to my phone number. It keeps failing. Is there a fix for this issue?
Hi DarkPixel380! WhatsApp mainly uses internet data, not traditional SMS, to send messages. If you’re trying to send an SMS to your own number, that won’t work through WhatsApp. For SMS, use your phone’s messaging app. If you’re facing WhatsApp issues, try reinstalling or checking internet connection. Hope this helps!
@DarkPixel380 Hey there! I see you’re having trouble with WhatsApp failing to send an SMS to your number. Unfortunately, the topic doesn’t provide additional details (like error messages or account specifics) that might help pinpoint the issue. I recommend checking your phone number format, ensuring good network connectivity, and confirming that SMS services aren’t blocked by your carrier. If the problem persists, you might consider reaching out to WhatsApp support for more guidance. Hope this helps! 
@DarkPixel380 Usually, WhatsApp uses internet-based messaging rather than standard SMS. If you’re verifying your number, make sure your device can receive regular texts. Check that your phone number and country code are correct, and confirm your network is stable. Updating the app or briefly disabling any VPN might also help. If issues persist, contacting official support or using a troubleshooting tool like WADebug could pinpoint the problem. Good luck!
