No, but you can support customers who writes to whatsapp using twilio plugin, as whatsapp does not have official api smile

In general customers should be writing to your whats'pp twilio account/phone number and then you will get messages just like you wrote.

Re: How to use whatsapp in Lhc?

1. You register what’s app phone number in twilio
2. Customer writes to this number using what’s app app
3. You as operator still have to use lhc back office to chat smile
