Expand your WhatsApp's functions
You probably don't know anyone with a smartphone who still doesn't use WhatsApp. That's not at all surprising since it's the most installed application all over the world, reaching almost 100% usage levels in certain countries, and overwhelmingly beating rivals of the likes of Telegram or LINE.
New functions for WhatsApp Messenger
One of the most critical opinions on behalf of its users has to do with minor details such as the customization of the interface, the privacy options or the permissions to carry out different actions. For such purpose, loads of WhatsApp MODs have sprung up all over the place, based on the original development and including all those requirements demanded by the user.
New functions and features to chat with your contacts.
This is where an app of the likes of Royal WhatsApp Transparent comes in, another MOD to be added to the list of WhatsApp Plus, GBWhatsApp, OGWhatsApp or YOWhatsApp. This application allows us to communicate with all the contacts on our list but including all the following features:
- Faster, more stable, safer, and cleaner than the original app.
- New privacy functions: we now have the possibility to establish different privacy levels in groups and contacts.
- Send any kind of file.
- Possibility to write statuses of up to 255 characters, exceeding the 140 characters of the official app.
- Zoom in and out of profile pics.
- Possibility to clear your recent emojis.
- Function to make backups and restore WhatsApp data.
- Send messages to any number even if it's not on your contact list.
Certain limitations to take into account
However, you have to bear in mind that to be able to use this application, you need to uninstall WhatsApp. The reason why has to do with the fact that it's based on the original app, and therefore, the operating system detects it as a duplicate and doesn't let us complete the installation.
That's also why you have to resort to webs of the likes of Malavida to be able to download this APK because it's an unauthorized development and it goes against the conditions of use of Google Play.
All in all, if you want to get hold of new functions for your chat and instant messaging app, try downloading this MOD. However, don't expect it to be updated at the same pace as the official version.
