Privacy Extension For WhatsApp Web for Chrome and Firefox adds a layer of privacy by hiding messages from nosey bystanders until you hover over them.
This extension/add-on is perfect while out in public (or even at work) when checking your WhatsApp messages at home or work. It blurs messages displaying them only when you hover over them with the mouse pointer. Use your WhatsApp with confidence that no one can read your messages. You can disable the blur function from the search bar or specify what you want to be blurred out.
For those that use WhatsApp and want some additional privacy protection against prying eyes, Privacy Extension For WhatsApp Web will be an excellent tool.
Privacy Extension For WhatsApp Web also allows you to quickly toggle the blur in the settings or with a keyboard shortcut (Default: Alt+X). But to activate it you will need to go to:
Chrome: “chrome://extensions/shortcuts”
Firefox: “about:addons” -> Settings icon on the top right -> Manage Extension Shortcuts
