GB WhatsApp APK is a modified application for WhatsApp that is much sought after because the WhatsApp service was down. There are differences and risks too.
GB WhatsApp APK aka WhatsApp GB, GBWhatsApp or WA GB is a modified third-party application that is not available in any application store. It is one of the WhatsApp mod versions on the market.
Besides WA GB, there are also WhatsApp Plus and YoWhatsApp which are widely used by WhatsApp users. What's the difference in the features? Here are its distinguishing features:
Quoted from Cashify, Thursday (7/10/2021) GB WhatsApp APK offers more features that are not in the original application. There is a change in fonts, a double-checked display and a contact display and a change in icon color.
GB WhatsApp APK also offers hiding messages as read or sent, fake online statuses, hiding name and time info on message copies, hiding last seen and notifications as well as friends changing profile photos.
This mod application also offers sending up to 90 photos and audio up to 100MB. You can also post a status for up to 7 minutes. In addition there is a password lock to lock secret conversations.
Those were the various features in GB WhatsApp APK that were different from the original WhatsApp. At first glance looks interesting huh? But... do not rush to download it. First consider the following negative side.
Because it is the result of third party modification, this application is considered unofficial and illegal by WhatsApp directly. Users also have to download WA GB from unknown sources which means there is a risk of this application being infiltrated by malware. Horrible right?
More importantly, the chats in this modified version of WhatsApp are not encrypted. So that hackers or any party can peek at your conversations.
WA GB and similar applications have also violated WhatsApp's Terms of Service and have no official support from WhatsApp because their security policies cannot be validated.
Because they don't get official support from WhatsApp, accounts caught using WA GB and the like are threatened with blocking. WhatsApp will later give the threat of being temporarily blocked.
"If you don't switch to the official application after being temporarily blocked, your account may be permanently blocked using WhatsApp," WhatsApp threatened in its official blog.
In conclusion, GB WhatsApp APK offers different features, but there are security risks that must be considered. Choose wisely, don't regret later.
