## Description

Direct Chat removes the friction of saving temporary contacts. Open the extension, select the country code, enter or paste the number you want to message, and optionally type a starter message. When you tap Send, a window opens to the official app and the chat is created for that number, allowing you to share media and use all related features without saving the contact. 

Key benefits include support for all countries, a compact size (about 4 MB), and a simple, fast workflow that saves you time in business and everyday messaging. Your feedback is welcome to help improve this tool.
