iPhone Siri and shortcut problem

[Bobski2000]

hi, I'm trying to do this:-
hey siri shush

it then sends a WhatsApp or text to my son, that says "Oi turn that bloody computer down now please"
hopefully you get what I'm meaning ?
is this possible as I'm new to shortcuts and I'm trying to figure this out but also I'm thick! ??
Many thanks
Bob

You can do this by using Send Messages
Send "[your message]" to "[your son]"
name it shush

I just created this on my phone and it works.

Is there a way to do this in WhatsApp? As well ?
Can send it to both ?

I don't have WhatsApp installed, but does it show as an available app when you tap on Add Action > Apps?

Yep there is a “Send a message through WhatsApp “ which I can use and get text in the text field but it just stops there as WhatsApp wants me to press send?

I don't know anything about WhatsApp, but for Messages it doesn't prompt (or at least it just sent it after the first time).

Yep agreed.
Thanks for the help on “Message” (Text).
