Hey everyone! I would like to request Firefox support! If it already does work then how can I install? I can't seem to find the extension on the Firefox extension store or anywhere. Thanks!

In fact, WhatsApp has a function to control image compression, however, I've already tested it and realized that unfortunately it's not so good. The image still loses a lot of quality.

Therefore, I propose the creation of a feature that allows sending images without loss of quality.

Regarding the upload of videos, as far as I've analyzed, they don't suffer any type of compression when uploaded via WhatsApp Web, what can happen is that it won't be uploaded if it exceeds the 64 megabyte limit.

Greetings!

I can only install the plugin from the debug menu. When I load it normally, it says the plugin is corrupt. When I load it from the debug menu and restart firefox, the plug-in is deleted. How can I install it normally?

You can use the new version of WhatsApp Web by installing the bata app version from here.
After updating the app, you must join the bata version (via the "Linked Devices" option in the app) and link the device to WhatsApp Web.
While the 'whatsapp web incognito' extension is running, the WhatsApp Web tab in the browser crashes with "Out of Memory" error message and does not load.

I have attached the log file as well below.

The following error is displayed on the console

Thank you for your work!

It simply won't load

Error: extension loads, but shows no button, and makes the messages appears unreaded.

Steps to reproduce:

Just login in WhatsApp Web and see that has no button and messages sended appears unreaded.

Thanks in advance!

(Not automatically, since as far as I know people can see who saw their status!)

Not an issue here really but I recently checked your Chrome Extension for Widev and i wasnt and particularly interested in using it and never did since i prefer to use Linux where possible. Though i saw you posted a write'up on the reversing process.
As someone who hopes to get even halfway decent at it that I appreciate that write up for simpletons like moi. You DA real MVP. Thanks.

Sorry for posting in tbis repo but the other is archived

I've been using WhatsApp with read receipts turned off, and this extension has been very useful for staying invisible in group chats, viewing statuses and playing media. But for personal conversations it's actually become annoying, because to get rid of the unread count I need to either reply to the person or click "mark as read" and confirm it in the popup, rather than just viewing the conversation.

So it would be nice if the extension could detect whether read receipts are turned on or off, and if they're off it could just mark personal chats as read as you view them. I'm not sure if this automatic detection is possible, so just adding it as an option would already be very useful!

As always, thanks a lot for your work!

Hey. I saw and LOVE this extension. May I publish it to Chrome Web Store? I'll give you full credit.

Solved!

Extension is installed, but icon doesn't appear in the whatsapp web application.

Hello,

Thanks for this tool.
Can you support whatsapp standalone client?

Or can I unpack app.asar and inject these extension files to it? Would it work?

Just a small potential UI improvement: Rather than three clicks in different places to mark messages as read (open dropdown > click "Mark as read" > confirm on popup), let the user click on the unread count to do it, maybe twice to avoid accidental actions.

Also, maybe instead of showing a popup, show an unobstrusive "tooltip" as a warning the first time you click, and then mark as read if you click again.

As always, thanks a lot for your work!

(Uhh... Sorry for the initial empty post. The textarea lost focus, I pressed Enter to create a new line, and the browser sent the form.)

Pretty much what the title says, as a toggleable option. Additionally, if you reply to a previous message, it could be configured to send confirmations only up to that message and leave newer ones "unread".

Thanks a lot for your work!

As I mentioned in the comment #46 (comment) , the groups are not working as they should.

I'm not able to download from the store.

Hi Tomer,

Would like to offer you some tasks in the field(kik)

thanks.

Does it work with the stories?

Hi, Tomer, I wanted to talk to you
I'd be happy If you contact me

After the new release and update of WhatsApp (web version) the mark as read button disappeared.

It seems that interception has stopped working (WA Incognito displays a prompt at load), perhaps in the latest whatsapp web version?

Currently on WhatsApp Web verison 0.3.4157

Error in the JavaScript console:

interception.js:916 WhatsAppWebIncognito: Can't find the WhatsApp API. Sending read receipts might not work.

I guess the class names in the core/ui_class_names.js file shall be updated, because after running document.getElementsByClassName("className"), I can't get any element in the JavaScript console.

Hi I'm trying the WAIncognito in firefox "debug mode" the plugin works so great.

When plugin will be available on firefox?

Steps to reproduce the issue :

1. Installed the original WAIncognito extension in Chrome Web Store.
2. Login web.whatsapp.com.
3. Open DevTools in chrome.
4. Set WAdebugMode = true
5. Receive a message .
6. The element next to "message" is always undefined.
   

Then I looked into this element from source code.

Is it implied that the readNode is not work with the lastest version of whatsapp ?
Thanks.

See screenshot. The button does nothing.

Hello, guys! I love your work and the extension is amazing, it makes me able to be free to read the groups from work and not worry hahaha

As the title says, I have no idea about the current state of Safari Extensions development, APIs and stuff and, as such, I'd kindly like to ask you: do you think it would be possible to port this extension to Safari for macOS?

Thanks for your attention and have a nice week :)

When loaded, the console log this exception:

Apparently the only collateral effect noted is the lack of loading the contacts names (only recent ones).

The exception occurs in the file 'binary_reader.js' line 28 at this point:

Well, since as of #31 this seems to turn from incognito-only to a general WhatsApp Web enhancer, now I dare asking: Would you maybe be willing to enhance the accessibility of WhatsApp Web for blind people? Cause WhatsApp didn't care for years, so I guess they never will... What was basically required is that when a new message arrives within the currently focused chat, the screenreader should automatically read it, cause as things stand right now a blind person wouldn't even notice it. It would be also super awesome if typing notifications and presences would be automatically announced and if there was a keyboard shortcut to record/send a voice message. Unfocused chats are covered by desktop notifications afair. Maybe this resource might help you: https://a11y-guidelines.orange.com/en/web/components-examples/make-a-screen-reader-talk/

Great addon!

I'd like to be able to easily mark as read. Currently there's a big modal warning, asking whether I'm really really sure, every time I click on "mark as read".
Pleas add an option to not show it. Thanks.

Hi,
in the current version voice messages aren't blocked anymore. The "marked as read" button still appears above them but the icon turns to blue when I play them.

It's not exactly related to being incognito, but I think that it can be a nice addition, and perhaps it's easy to do with the toolset you already have. When somebody deletes a message, I believe it's possible to block the request on the browser and leave it at least until the page is refreshed. What do you think?

Can you please provide support for Firefox

I use it in Firefox since always without problems, but around twelve o'clock in the afternoon it stopped working

If someone logs in when "Keep me signed in" is off, WhatsApp will not save WASecretBundle in its local storage, and a result, the extension will not work.

Fixing this would require using the session storage instead.

After the new release and update of WhatsApp (web version) the mark as read button disappeared 11/19/2020

I'm not sure if this is by design, but it was unexpected. It's not really that important, but I have one (admittedly very unusual) use for this feature.

Is it possible to show this label? Does it require sending read confirmations or presence updates?

Thanks in advance!

As you know that WhatsApp shows our status as offline if we switch the window but sometimes we don't need that it keeps on running side by side in my multiwindow view and we still keep an eye on it and reply to message but as we keep on switching windows, again and again, it is kind of annoying for another person.

I have already explained it in more detail in this discussion thread #50 .

Would this work for group messages also? I notice that read receipt in Whatsapp can be hidden in personal messages, but when it comes to groups, the sender can have access to whom has seen their message/media.

Hi everyone,
as mentioned by tomer8007, there is currently no support for the new Multi-device BETA feature.
So far there was no issue listed with respect to this, so here we are.
Best,
Alex

I updated my Chrome web browser today, reinstalled the plugin but it won't work. When I click on my conversations, it shows a blank. Thanks!

Can we read the message sent to me through the given code and and store it in some variable.
and send back the message through code published by you

Error: extension does not load after using WhatsApp Web in another Chrome window or PC

Steps to reproduce:

1 - Login in WhatsApp Web in a Chrome window n. 1
2 - Login in WhatsApp Web (same number) in a Chrome window n. 2 (will log off the WhatsApp in window n. 1)
3 - Re-login in WhatsApp Web (same number) again. The WhatsApp Web will open correctly, but without load this extension.

I checked the code, but I cannot help with my actual knowledge.

By the way, I am a user and a big fan of this work. Congratulation.

I have a couple of questions which if you could answer, would be amazing.

1. I know of a way to check if the user is online by getting the value of props.chat.presence.isOnline, but the correct value of that can only be gotten once the chat is opened. I want to get the correct value of the presence when all the chats are loaded, without having to open them. Is this possible?

2. Is there a way to programmatically open a chat? By this, I mean is it possible to simulate clicking one of the chats to open that certain chat? I tried using the element.click() method, but that doesn't do anything.

Thanks,
Aman.

Sometimes, the sending read receipts in... gets stuck at 1 second.
The console is full of these errors.
