These days, nearly every seventh person on earth uses WhatsApp to communicate with individuals and groups. And while many people use it in a social capacity, this messaging application is a seamless fit in a workplace context, from sharing emoji stories to internal communications.

With entrepreneurs, small business professionals, and individual professionals using this messenger more and more frequently for business purposes, many began to wonder: “How do I share documents using WhatsApp?” This question was answered by the folks at WhatsApp last month, when they introduced an in-app document sharing feature.

While that is certainly great news, here’s something even better! SignEasy users on iOS can now sign documents received via WhatsApp using SignEasy without leaving the application (in case you’re wondering how, remember our iOS 8 extension?).

Here’s how:

Open: Open the document received on WhatsApp, tap on the ‘Open in’ icon on the top right-hand side, and select the Sign with SignEasy option.

Sign: Next, tap the signature icon, draw your signature, and place it on the document. You can also add your name, the date, and other fields. Tap Done to finalize. A copy of the document will also be saved to your SignEasy account.

Send: On the following screen, choose ‘Open in’ and select WhatsApp. Voila! The signed document will be seamlessly shared within the same ongoing conversation.



Messages you send on this platform are now secured with end-to-end encryption, so you won’t have to worry about privacy when you share documents using WhatsApp.

Not so hard, right? That’s just the kind of simplicity you can expect when you start signing your documents with SignEasy.
