How to put a WhatsApp link on TikTok and Instagram so it opens properly

TikTok and Instagram open links in their own in-app browser. Some people reach the chat without trouble, and some get stuck there instead of reaching WhatsApp.

You can make this easier with a clean short link in your bio, a bio page with a clear button, and, on Premium, a link check that helps people out of the TikTok and Snapchat browser.

What to know

  • A short link in the bio

    A short link is easy to read, tap and type, and it counts clicks.

  • A bio page

    One link can show your chat button, your other profiles and a map, instead of five separate links.

  • Help leaving the in-app browser (Premium)

    A link check helps people open the chat outside the TikTok and Snapchat browser.

  • Counted by source

    Premium analytics show which app people came from.
