Hi, can you experiment with a higher wait time?
are you using multiple monitors?

Thanks

hello, and thanks for the quick reply. I have tested it with different input args, this is not the problem. The issue is that i use multiple monitors (two). As i run the code on pycharm on my main monitors, it opens whatsapp web on the secondary monitor, performs the required actions, and while it waits to send the message (hit the 'enter' button) it retorns to the main monitor (with pycharm) and there is presses the 'enter'. The question is who can we force it to say on the browser window?

Same problem here. Environment: Windows 11 Pro, version 25H2, with Chrome, version 145.0.7632.110 (Official Build) (64-bit), and Python 3.14.2; the Python script (called main.py) is:

import pywhatkit

def send_whatsapp_message():
    pywhatkit.sendwhatmsg("+01234567890", # Redacted
                      "Test message!", 
                      8, 30)

def main():
    send_whatsapp_message()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

This correctly opens WhatsApp Web on Chrome and writes the message, but it doesn't actually send it: it stays there indefinitely.
Launching the script:

(venv) PS C:\python-whatsapp> python .\main.py
In 437 Seconds WhatsApp will open and after 15 Seconds Message will be Delivered!
(venv) PS C:\python-whatsapp>
