About this extension
WhatsApp Web Privacy Mode lets you blur your chat list and message bubbles on WhatsApp Web with a single click — so you can share your screen in meetings, record tutorials, or work in public without exposing private conversations.

Features

One-click toggle — enable or disable privacy mode instantly from the popup
Blur intensity control — adjust blur strength from subtle to fully opaque
Blur areas — blur the sidebar (chat list), message bubbles, or both independently
Hover to Reveal — temporarily unblur content while your cursor hovers over it
Last N Messages Visible — keep the most recent 1–5 messages unblurred while hiding the rest
Panic Key (Ctrl+Shift+P) — instantly cover WhatsApp with a frosted overlay in one keystroke
Keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+O) — toggle privacy mode without opening the popup
Scheduled Privacy — automatically enable privacy mode during set hours every day
Auto Screen Share Detection — activates privacy mode automatically when you start sharing your screen on Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and more
Notification Privacy — hides message content in browser notifications while privacy mode is active
PIN Lock — require a 4-digit PIN to turn privacy mode off, preventing casual disable
Export / Import settings — back up and restore your configuration as a JSON file
