WhatsApp Shok Sandesh card (WhatsApp पर शोक संदेश)
Almost every Shok Sandesh travels by WhatsApp: a family group, then a society group, then forwards. The card has to be readable at phone size and carry no detail that might change.
Designs that suit a whatsapp shok sandesh card
Image, PDF or video
- Image (PNG): the best choice for groups, since it opens inline and keeps the text sharp
- PDF: for printing at a shop or sending to someone without a smartphone
- Video (9:16, with soft music): for WhatsApp status or Instagram stories
Making it readable on a small screen
Keep the message under about 40 words, use a design with a plain background, and crop the photo to the face. Everything on this site is drawn at A4 size, which WhatsApp compresses; a clear photo and short text survive compression best.
Sending it well
Send the card first and the Maps pin as a separate message, because the text on a card image cannot be tapped. In a large group, ask one person to share it so the date is not repeated in different forms.
