About BlurIt — WhatsApp Web Privacy Blur

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. ** BlurIt is open source (MIT) and not affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta. Use responsibly.
