One-way WhatsApp for focused work
Every WhatsApp notification is an interruption. Every message preview pulls your focus. Every "quick reply" turns into a 20-minute conversation.
You need to send messages for work. You don't need to be constantly available.
Send messages to contacts and groups. Search your message history. Stay connected on your terms.
No notifications. No message previews. No real-time updates. Check WhatsApp when you decide to.
Send to contacts and groups with a simple keyboard-driven interface
Find past messages quickly with full-text search
No incoming message listeners. True tech detox mode.
Navigate everything with arrow keys, no mouse needed
SQLite database keeps your data on your machine
Session persists after initial QR code scan
" The absence of incoming message listeners isn't a missing feature — it's the entire point. "
Most apps try to maximize your engagement. OneWay does the opposite. It gives you just enough WhatsApp to stay functional, without the constant dopamine hits of new message notifications.
This is intentional friction. When you need to check messages, open the real app. When you need to send something and get back to work, use OneWay.
