Five simple steps from install to a fully private WhatsApp Web experience - no configuration required to get started.
Step 1
Add WhatsApp Web Privacy Mode from the Chrome Web Store, Microsoft Edge Add-ons, or Firefox Add-ons. No account, no sign-up, and no permissions beyond what is needed.
Step 2
Navigate to web.whatsapp.com. The extension automatically detects the page, injects its content script, and adds the privacy toggle icon to your browser toolbar.
Step 3
Click the extension icon and flip the toggle, or press Ctrl+Shift+O from any tab. The sidebar chat list and message bubbles blur immediately with no perceptible delay.
Step 4
Open the settings panel to fine-tune blur strength, enable the PIN lock, set a daily schedule, or turn on auto screen-share detection for meetings.
Step 5
Share your screen in any meeting. Auto-detection enables privacy mode the moment you start sharing, and reverts when you stop - completely hands-free.
