Privacy Extension For WhatsApp Web Extension

To increase privacy in public spaces the Privacy Extension For WhatsApp™ Web blurs your messages. Your messages and other content only reveals upon hovering over with your mouse cursor. Additionally you can quickly toggle all effects by using a keyboard shortcut or by clicking the toggle button in the extension menu.

It adapts to your needs by letting you decide which elements you want to blur. Most important options:

- All messages in chat: Blurs all messages in the current chat.
- Last messages preview: Blurs all message previews on the left.
- Media preview: Blurs all images, videos, stickers, ... in separation from the text.
- Profile pictures: Blurs all profile pictures.

An extended list of features can be found on our page: https://pfwa.lukaslen.com/

Quick Toggle: Use the keyboard shortcut to quickly toggle the extension on or off (Default: Alt+X). To change this navigate to: \"chrome://extensions/shortcuts\"
