Hey, my name is Sunit. i really liked the information you've shared about whatsapp. My question is - How can i store a friend's mobile number who lives in the USA and uses whatsapp? How can i start chatting with my friend from there? Do i need to put a certain code before his number while saving it on the phone?
Please help.

You do not have to do anything extra to chat with this friend. All you need to do is simply save his contact number in your phone and that's it. He will be automatically visible in your Whatsapp contact list as well. Now chat with him.
