You could do that with a custom activity and a callback that opens the url scheme of WhatsApp (whatsapp://) right?

But not send an image unfortunately :(

Very strange there is no http://www.sharesdk.com/uiactivities for it.

I have tried custom Activity for WhatsApp, and able to send the text, but the only issue is icon is not coming.

if (Social.isActivityViewSupported()) {// iOS6 and later
Social.activityView({
text : text,
url : params['EXTRA_URL'],
removeIcons:"print,sms,copy,contact,camera"
},[

            {
                title:"WhatsApp",
                type:"open.whatsapp",
                image: "/images/whatsapp.png",
                callback: function(e) {
                    Ti.Platform.openURL("whatsapp://send?text=" + text);
                },

            }
        ]
    );
}

Here "/images/whatsapp.png" icon is not showing also it is coming down the line.
Any suggestion plz.

Works fine for me, but I do have images/.. instead of /images/...

The icon must be 60x60, is positioned in a rounded gray square, and, in addition, a gray overlay is applied.

Watch here the UI Guidelines: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/ContentViews.html

• Use black or white with appropriate alpha transparency.
• Don’t include a drop shadow.
• Use antialiasing.

Something like this :/

Thank a lot Kopiro and FokkeZB for help :-), now icon is showing properly.
one small question "Can't we use colored whatsapp icon like FB TI or Mail from above image ? "

[FokkeZB]

Nope, you can't... those are managed by iOS.

[roopeshnema]

Ok Thank you sir

[roopeshnema]

one small question, though it is not related to whatsapp, earlier version ( < 1.7) of module, used to display a popup when user wil try to share in FB or TI but FB or TI accounts are not added in the settings, but with the latest version that popup is not coming so is there any way to enable it back.

also when FB app is installed on mobile but no account is not added in settings, in this case also FB icon is not displaying in the window, so is it mandatory that account should be added in the settings irrespective of app is installed?
