Hi Product Hunt community! 👋 I’m Narayanan Mani the creator of Privacy Guard for WhatsApp. We’ve all been there: You’re using WhatsApp Web in the office, a coffee shop, or on a train, and you feel the person next to you glancing at your screen. Whether it's private family chats or sensitive work info, "shoulder surfing" is a real privacy headache. I built this extension because I wanted a simple, toggle-on solution to keep my conversations private without having to constantly close my browser tab. What you can do with Privacy Guard: Smart Blurring: Instantly blur messages, contact names, or profile photos. Hover-to-Reveal: Only see what you want to see by hovering your mouse over a specific area. Privacy Toggle: Quickly turn the protection on or off with a single click or keyboard shortcut. Lightweight: It doesn't slow down your browser or collect your data. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Are there specific elements (like attachments or voice notes) you'd like to see more blurring options for? Do you prefer the "Blur" effect or would you like a "Pixelate" or "Black-out" option? I'll be here all day to answer your questions. Thanks for the support! 🚀
