About this extension
A privacy layer for WhatsApp Web. BlurIt softly blurs the sensitive parts of WhatsApp Web; the chat list, the chat header, and the message bubbles; until you intentionally hover over them. You can still read your chats. Everyone glancing at your screen sees only fuzz.
Perfect for cafés, open-plan offices, and screen-sharing on video calls.
Features:
• Hover to reveal - Blurred by default, clears when you hover.
• Master switch + keyboard shortcut to toggle everything instantly.
• Independent toggles for chat list / header / messages.
• Whitelist contacts that should never be blurred. Keep bot based chat easily accessible.
• Option to always show latest message so that you do not lose the context of your conversation.
• Adjustable blur intensity and reveal delay.
• Settings sync across your devices via your browser account.
** Zero data collection. No network calls. No analytics. No tracking. Always free. **
Data collection permission is used to save privacy configuration, stored on local storage only, on your system.
