In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of sharing contact cards on WhatsApp.

Prerequisites

• A smartphone with WhatsApp installed
• Active internet connection

Step 1: Open WhatsApp

Open the WhatsApp application on your smartphone. It usually has a green icon with a white phone inside.

Step 2: Open a Chat

Select the chat with the person or group you want to share the contact card with. You can either choose an existing conversation or start a new one.

Step 3: Access the Contact Card

To access the contact card feature, you have two options:

Option 1: From the Chat Window

• Tap on the "+" button located at the bottom-left corner of the chat window.
• From the menu that appears, select "Contact" or "Contact Card" option.

Option 2: From the Contacts List

• If you want to share a contact from your list of saved contacts, go back to the main WhatsApp screen.
• Tap on the "Chats" tab at the top of the screen.
• Now, tap on the "New chat" button at the bottom-right corner.
• Search for and select the contact from your contacts list.
• Once the chat window opens, tap on the "+" button and select "Contact" or "Contact Card".

Step 4: Select and Share the Contact Card

After accessing the contact card, follow these steps to share it with others:

• Review the contact details to ensure accuracy.
• Tap on the "Share Contact" or "Send" button, typically represented by a paper airplane icon.
• Select where you want to send the contact card. You can choose to send it to an individual chat, a group chat, or even print it as a hard copy.
