About
WhatsApp Chooser lets you pick between WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business every time you click a wa.me link. If you use both a personal and a business WhatsApp account on your Mac, you know the problem: clicking a wa.me link always opens the same app, with no way to choose. This extension fixes that. HOW IT WORKS - Click any wa.me or api.whatsapp.com link - A clean chooser popup appears showing the contact number - Pick "WhatsApp" or "WhatsApp Business" — the right app opens instantly FEATURES - Works with wa.me, api.whatsapp.com, and web.whatsapp.com links - Shows the phone number and message text before you choose - Fully configurable: works with any WhatsApp-compatible client (ChatMate, etc.) - Fast native messaging host written in C — no lag, no dependencies - Privacy-first: no data collected, no analytics, fully open source SETUP This extension requires a small native helper to launch the correct app. After installing: 1. Download the native host from GitHub (link below) 2. Run install.sh with your extension ID 3. Restart Chrome Source code & setup instructions: github.com/onemanjoe/whatsapp-chooser macOS only.
