Buttons working on iOS + WEB + Desktop WhatsApp, but not for Android

[brunoaduarte]

Hi! Is there any secret to make a button message arrive on an Android device ?

My code does send a message button to all other 3 devices: iOS, Web and Windows Desktop successfully, but on Android receiver nothing appears on the chat.

It's strange though, because I tried a service that sends an OTP code to WhatsApp numbers (there's a copy button on the message) and the Android device received it.

Is anything wrong with my code?

I even tried to clone the entire message from the OTP example so it's exactly the same, even with that the message does not display.

FYI: I've tried mocking "TemplateID", "RecipientKeyHash", "RecipientKeyIndexes", "RecipientTimestamp" to the same as the message that arrived on the Android device (sent by the OTP service I've tested).

func (cli *Client) GetMessageWithButton(title, content, footer, buttonText string) *waE2E.Message {

	var hyderatedButtons []*waE2E.HydratedTemplateButton
	index := uint32(0)

	hyderatedButtons = append(hyderatedButtons, &waE2E.HydratedTemplateButton {
		Index: &index,
		HydratedButton: &waE2E.HydratedTemplateButton_UrlButton {
			UrlButton: &waE2E.HydratedTemplateButton_HydratedURLButton {
				DisplayText: proto.String(buttonText),
				URL: proto.String("https://www.whatsapp.com/otp/code/?otp_type=COPY_CODE&code_expiration_minutes=10&code=otp881320"),
			}}})

	timestamp, _ := strconv.ParseUint("1724818629", 10, 64)

	hydratedTemplate := &waE2E.TemplateMessage_HydratedFourRowTemplate {
		HydratedContentText: proto.String(content),
		HydratedFooterText:  proto.String(footer),
		HydratedButtons:     hyderatedButtons,
		TemplateID:          proto.String("4194019344155670"),
		Title: &waE2E.TemplateMessage_HydratedFourRowTemplate_HydratedTitleText {
			HydratedTitleText: proto.String(title),
		},
	}

	templateMessage := &waE2E.TemplateMessage {
		HydratedTemplate: hydratedTemplate,
		TemplateID: proto.String("4194019344155670"),
	}

	deviceListMetaData := &waE2E.DeviceListMetadata {
		RecipientKeyHash: []byte{}, // []byte{0xba, 0x35, 0xc5, 0x4d, 0xb1, 0x01, 0x3c, 0x62, 0xef, 0x44}
		RecipientTimestamp: &timestamp,
		RecipientKeyIndexes: []uint32{}, // []uint32{0, 15, 2}
	}

	messageContextinfo := &waE2E.MessageContextInfo{
		DeviceListMetadataVersion: proto.Int32(2),
		DeviceListMetadata: deviceListMetaData,
	}

	message := &waE2E.Message {
		TemplateMessage: templateMessage,
		MessageContextInfo: messageContextinfo,
	}

	// msgViewOnce := &waE2E.Message{
	// 	ViewOnceMessage: &waE2E.FutureProofMessage {
	// 		Message: message,
	// }}

	return message
}

buttonMessageTemplate := cli.GetMessageWithButton("", "Your verification code is *881320*.", "This code expires in 10 minutes.", "COPY CODE")
cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), cli.Store.ID.ToNonAD(), buttonMessageTemplate)

Since the latest changes from WhatsApp it should only be possible with the official WhatsApp Business API afaik.

[brunoaduarte]

Yeah, I've seen this answers like these here since 2022, but it does not make sense, since it still works for iOS + Web + Desktop.

Also the message does arrive on the Android device (I can see it in the logs with Frida), it's just not displayed for some reason.

There must be a trick to make it work.

[masewo]

Yea, not really logical but I guess they do an extra verification on Android devices. Whiskey stopped supporting it too.

@brunoaduarte
About the OTP service, if it's not an official bot, you could try to get the proto message and find any difference or tricks they use.

On android with the

"quotedMessage": {
     "interactiveMessage": {
       "body": {
         "text": "msg de botao"
       },
       "nativeFlowMessage": {
         "buttons": [.....

Can display the buttons.

@w3nder , i tried applying your structure to whatsmeow, but it din't worked. The message just appeared as a normal quoted message

func (cli *Client) GetButtons(title, content, footer, buttonText string) *waE2E.Message {
	msgVersion := int32(1)
	return &waE2E.Message {
		InteractiveMessage: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage {
			Header: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage_Header {
				Title: proto.String(title),
				Subtitle: proto.String(content),
			},
			Footer: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage_Footer {
				Text: proto.String(footer),
			},
			Body: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage_Body {
				Text: proto.String(buttonText),
			},
			InteractiveMessage: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage_NativeFlowMessage_ {
				NativeFlowMessage: &waE2E.InteractiveMessage_NativeFlowMessage {
					MessageVersion: &msgVersion,
					Buttons: []*waE2E.InteractiveMessage_NativeFlowMessage_NativeFlowButton {
						{
							Name: proto.String("Yes"),
						},
						{
							Name: proto.String("No"),
						},
					},
				},
			},
			ContextInfo: &waE2E.ContextInfo {

			},
		},
	}
}

func (cli *Client) GetQuote(to types.JID, msgToQuote *waE2E.Message) *waE2E.Message {
	return &waE2E.Message {
		ExtendedTextMessage: &waE2E.ExtendedTextMessage {
			Text: proto.String(""),
			ContextInfo: &waE2E.ContextInfo {
				StanzaID: proto.String(""),
				Participant: proto.String(to.ToNonAD().String()),
				QuotedMessage: msgToQuote,
			},
		},
	}
}

to := types.NewJID("mynumber_xxxxxx", types.DefaultUserServer)
cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), to, cli.GetButtons("Title", "SubTitle", "Footer", "msg de botao"))
cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), to, cli.GetQuote(to, cli.GetButtons("Title", "SubTitle", "Footer", "msg de botao")))

And the result is

Any ideas?

We are able to send the buttons to Baileys in the way I mentioned.

Let me see how it looks in Meow.

Hello, Mind posting the full code which worked for you?

@brunoaduarte, which code worked for you?

Is there currently a code for the send button? In addition, when sending a template message, what is the message type and media type?

[hrizal]

at this time you cannot do that, i think meta filtered messages like that if coming from regular whatsapp. Pada Sel, 8 Okt 2024 pukul 20.01 Patricia C Stryker < ***@***.***> menulis:
