Maybe! But mind you when I say I have something to hide doesn't mean evil, hurt or cheat on my wife. It means there are messages you won't wanna reply it; like cousin or anyone disturbing you for money and you can't say no and he or she keep monitoring you. You can hide your online status, doing something else ana he won't know you're online and so many more. Having things to hide doesn't mean evil, a yahoo, hacker and co. So you get it
I get it. It's good you clarified,even though I wasn't taking "hide" to mean evil.

Why would he implement Gb WhatsApp features? Why exactly
Is the reason not obvious enough? The former supports high-level customization and the latter doesn't. Unless there are security concerns from implementing all this on WhatsApp, then I'll understand.

That’s stealing ideas, and also also why WhatsApp is WhatsApp and not gbwhatsapp, once it has all these things then it’s not WhatsApp again. Why does gbwhatsapp just crash anyhow sometimes, you’ll just lose Messages anyhow

lmao, says who ? people use it on ios, there is a way they tweak their mobile phone.

Not Twerk, it’s called Jail breaking. The moment you do that to an iPhone, that phone is prone to virus and no longer protected by Apple.

Stop wishing you can root your iPhone, go and buy android. Abi you done see where person buy GLE, come turn am to Corolla?

This is ignorance,lol. An iPhone can be jailbreaked. Jailbreak is the equivalent of rooting on Android.

I usually jailbreak any iPhone I use,by doing so I can install tweaks that allow me save pictures/videos and do all those other stuffs GB WhatsApp users do on my WhatsApp (on iPhone). There are countless other things you can do if you jailbreak your phone tho i.e changing of fonts.

There's always a loophole to everything! Everything has a weakness,lol.

Which iPhone? iPhone 6 in 2020? Because I don’t see how any mature human will buy an iPhone 12 and go jailbreaking it. For what exactly? For fonts and wallpaper? Are you in secondary school?

Any iPhone can be jailbreaked. Jailbreaking goes beyond fonts and wallpaper, I'll reiterate that there are countless things you can do if you jailbreak your iPhone.
A jailbroken iPhone is almost limitless in terms of what it can do!
You don't seem to be a techy person so you likely won't understand.

Yes. Which iOS version are you on?
Btw,I hope you have a system? Any can do but Mac is preferable and less stressful.
Prior to 2020 you could jailbreak your phone without needing a system but now without a system you can't jailbreak.

Most tech people I know do not jailbreak their iPhones. They have their iPhones and MacBooks, then they have Samsung and Hp on the side. Some do not even use Apple products, I know a few on that table. I don’t know any tech person that would spend a lot to buy a current Apple device only to jailbreak it.

Different people, different priorities.
There's nothing wrong with jailbreaking,I don't know about others but I do it for fun.

That's not necessary. You can get any information and help you need as regards jailbreaking on YouTube/Google.

Jailbreaking is very easy,it doesn't take more than 30mins max.
Re: Whatsapp Warns Over GB WhatsApp That Mimics Features & Could Leave You Blocked by Nobody: 7:20pm On Jul 06, 2021
For example. If you're on iOS 14, search for "iOS 14 jailbreak or How to jailbreak iOS 14" on YouTube/Google.

@Nyne

If you're done mention me so that I can give you names of repos where you can get cool tweaks from.

Im sorry for the delay. Was quite busy. This is how you go about it. First it depends on the kind of modded Whatsapp you're using.

There are usually 2 types: FMWhatsapp or GBWhatsapp. But there's another 3rd type which is actually Whatsapp. Yes, sometimes modded Whatsapp comes with that name, just dont confuse it with your original Whatsapp if you have any. Otherwise, your phone will save it as "Whatsapp(2)". (This is rare anyway, so we'll assume its not in your case, thus we move on).

STEP 1: IDENTIFY THE FOLDER ON YOUR PHONE

Like I earlier said, check for either FMWhatsapp or GBWhatsapp by going to your File folder (on Android). In very rare events, it may be Whatsapp but I doubt. (If that is your case, confirm its not your original Whatsapp by clicking into the folder and checking for recent images or voicenotes)

Attached is a snapshot of my own. I use GBWhatsapp. (Found in My Files -> Internal Storage). If yours is stored in a memory card, you'll probably find it in something like My Files -> SD Card

STEP 2: INSTALLING YOUR NEW GBWHATSAPP / FMWHATSAPP

This is where it gets tricky. When installing your new Modded Whatsapp, the new one automatically creates a new folder, and then your phone renames your former Whatsapp folder to something like Whatsapp(202202912).

TAKE NOTE: THIS IS WHAT YOU SHOULD DO COS THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE GET IT WRONG!

When installing your new whatsapp, first click the button that says "Copy Whatsapp Data". Click it. But mind you, it does nothing.

You see that point where it will say you should enter your phone number for validation, once you enter your digits, leave Whatsapp and go back to your File Manager. Check the list. You will have 2 Whatsapp. The new one will be named "GBWhatsapp" and the old one will be something like "GBWhatsapp(202109018). Now delete the new one "GBWhatsapp", and rename the old one from "GBWhatsapp(20210918)" simply to "GBWhatsapp".

But if you only see 1 Whatsapp, no problem. Just go back to your Whatsapp, and complete the next stage (usually where Whatsapp requests access to your Contacts). Then go back again to your File Manager and look for 2 Whatsapp folder and do what I told you. If you do not still see it, go back to your Whatsapp and complete the next stage then go back and check. But usually its either when you put in your number or Allow access to your contacts that the new Whatsapp folder is created in your File manager.

Hopefully you find the 2 Whatsapp folders, then you delete the new one and rename the old one to simply GBWhatsapp. One thing to take note is that if your former whatsapp is GBWhatsapp, and you're installing FMWhatsapp, you will change the folder name to FMWhatsapp. But dont stop there. You'll have to access all your "Media" and change them from "GBWhatsapp Animated Gif" to "FMWhatsapp Animated Gif", "GBWhatsapp Audio" to "FMWhatsapp Audio", "GBWhatsapp Images" to "FMWhatsapp Images"... and on and on.

That will preserve all your profile photos, audio, images etc. If you don't do that. It's only your chat backup you'll get. All images / videos/ voicenotes wont appear.

So thats it. If successful, Whatsapp will tell you backup has been found as the image attached below.

If you still have problems later, let me know.
