Hey, instead of "user", you need to specify your contact name in the address list of WhatsApp. Can you try again?

Do you have WhatsApp web in English or Italian?

Idk, I don't use it, I used it only through this tool (default settings?) but doesn't work. Why is this important? The username still be the same, no? Can this tool tell me who the target message with? If not is not really usefull.

No, this tool is used to track online / offline events. The language is important because HTML content of web.whatsapp.com changes by the language selected, so it can happen that it will not find the proper HTML tags to find the name of your contact
