WhatsApp help
Make sure our messages get through.
A few one-time steps so you never miss a reading — and a quick fix list if delivery ever hiccups.
Setup
Three steps, two minutes.
Save our WhatsApp number
Add +91 80000 12345 to your contacts as "howismy.today" so our messages don't land in your Unknown senders folder.
Reply OK to verify
After your first reading arrives, reply "OK" once. This confirms WhatsApp can deliver messages reliably.
Ask follow-up questions
You can reply to any reading with a question — about a planet, a transit, your dasha, anything. We treat it like a conversation.

Privacy in WhatsApp
What we do and don't do over chat.
End-to-end encryption
WhatsApp messages are encrypted between you and our system. Not even WhatsApp can read them.
No marketing spam
We only send your daily reading and direct responses to your questions. No promotional broadcasts.
One quiet ping per day
We schedule deliveries during your local morning. No alerts at midnight, no multi-message blasts.
Easy to pause or stop
Reply "stop" anytime — delivery ends immediately. Resume with "resume". No win-back tactics.
Country availability
We deliver to any country where WhatsApp works — 40+ countries today. No geographic restrictions.
WhatsApp Web works too
Readings sync to WhatsApp Web and Desktop. You can read and reply from your laptop.
Delivery confirmation
Each reading shows a delivery receipt in your account. If it didn't arrive, you'll see it there.
Two-way always-on
You can reply any time, not just within minutes of receiving the reading. We thread it correctly.
“The #1 fix for “not receiving messages” is saving our number to your contacts. WhatsApp's spam filter is very protective of unknown senders.”
