About HushView — Privacy for WhatsApp Web
Keep conversations private when you work in an office, study in a library, share a screen, or use WhatsApp Web in public.
HushView can hide:
• the chat list and message previews
• message text in the open conversation
• photos and video
• the current contact's name and picture
Use the toolbar button to reveal everything temporarily, hover to reveal one item, or press Alt+Shift+P. New messages are covered automatically by local CSS.
FREE FOREVER
The complete core privacy shield, all four content categories, hover reveal, keyboard reveal, and blur strength are free.
OPTIONAL HUSHVIEW PRO
Pro adds automatic re-shielding when focus leaves the page and a timed reveal. The founder license is a one-time USD $9.99 purchase for up to three Chrome installations. Checkout is hosted by Creem; Google Pay appears when available in Chrome.
PRIVACY BY DESIGN
HushView does not copy, save, analyze, or transmit chats, contacts, media, or browsing history. There are no ads or analytics. Settings remain in Chrome local storage.
HushView requires access only to web.whatsapp.com so the shield can turn on automatically. Optional license-service access is requested only when activating Pro.
HushView is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by WhatsApp or Meta.
