Real feedback from the Chrome Web Store.
The media blur is a lifesaver. I often get personal photos in chats, and now I don't have to worry about opening WhatsApp at work. One hover and I can see it. Perfect.
I love that I can hide contact names. It's not just about the messages; sometimes I don't want people to even know WHO I'm talking to. This extension nails that privacy aspect.
The global toggle with a shortcut is genius. When my boss walks by, I just hit the switch and everything is safe. No transitions, instant blur. Highly recommend.
Finally a privacy extension that doesn't make WhatsApp laggy. The typing input blur is a nice touch too—people can't even see what I'm drafting.
I use the 'No Transition Delay' setting because I hate waiting for the unblur animation. It feels super snappy. Best one I've used so far.
Simple and effective. I keep Profile Pictures blurred by default so my screen just looks like a bunch of grey generic blocks. Zero distractions.
