    Which is PyWhatsapp by shauryauppal, which was more of cli tool than a wrapper which suprisingly worked and it's approach allows you to dynamically send whatsapp message to unsaved contacts without rescanning QR-code everytime.

    A lot depends on how you want to send the message - if you have an MQTT client that you are happy with then fine but the others mentioned should have clients for your 'phone / tablet that are easier to use. There is a library for WhatsApp if you use that currently here on GITHUB - never tried it though.

    I then tried pywhatsapp which is based on yowsup and thus requiring you to do some registration with yowsup before using it of which after bit of googling I got scared of having my number blocked when I do that so I went for the next option

    Basically, it's a game where the network will always have a head start, and there will be issues for the users. Whatsapp did this (using yowsup results in your account being banned), Twitter did this (by limiting the user count an external app can have).
