Whatsapp Web Contact Hide and Blur Toggle

WhatsApp Web Sidebar Hide & Blur keeps your chats private on WhatsApp Web. Blur or hide your contact list, your open chat, or both with one click, and choose exactly how strong the blur is. Nobody looking over your shoulder sees who you're talking to or what you're saying. NEW IN 1.5.1: CHAT BLUR Blur the open conversation as well as the contact list. Choose Contacts, Chat or Both in the new "What to Blur" setting, or cycle between them with a button on the overlay. Newly opened chats appear already blurred, so nothing slips through when you switch conversations. KEY FEATURES • Blur Contacts, Chat or Both Pick what stays private: the contact sidebar (default), the open chat, or everything at once. • Hide the Sidebar Hide the whole contact sidebar with a single click for a clean, distraction-free screen. • Adjustable Blur Use the slider to set the blur strength, from a light haze to fully unreadable names, messages and profile photos. • Hover to Peek Hover your mouse over a blurred area to reveal just the part under your cursor. Prefer full control? Turn hover off and unblur with the toggle button instead, and remove the hover delay if you want an instant reveal. • Blur the Search Bar and Filters Optionally blur the search bar and chat filter buttons too, so your recent searches and labels stay hidden. • Keyboard Shortcut Toggle the blur instantly with Alt+B, or set your own shortcut right in the extension panel. • Floating Overlay You Control Drag the overlay anywhere on screen, minimise it to a small button in the bottom-left corner when you don't need it, and restore it with one click. • Reliable Your blur comes back automatically after WhatsApp Web reloads, so you're never caught off guard. USE CASES • Shared Offices Keep colleagues, managers and curious passers-by from reading your chats in an open-plan office. • Presentations and Screen Sharing Present or share your screen in meetings and classes without exposing contact names or message previews. • Public Places Chat with confidence in cafés, libraries, classrooms, trains or anywhere else with prying eyes. PRIVACY Everything runs locally in your browser. The extension only works on web.whatsapp.com, collects no data and reads none of your messages.
