WhatsApp Plus is packed with features, but many users only scratch the surface of what it can do. Here are 10 powerful tricks that will completely change how you use the app every day.
1. Lock Specific Chats with a Password
Go to any chat, long press, and select Lock Chat. This adds a fingerprint or PIN lock to individual conversations, hiding them from anyone who picks up your phone.
2. Read Messages Without Opening the Chat
Enable the notification preview in settings to read full messages from the notification shade without triggering the blue ticks or marking messages as read.
3. Change Message Font Styles
Use the built-in font changer to type in over 20 different fonts within your messages. Access it from the text formatting toolbar in any chat.
4. Enable Ghost Mode
Ghost mode makes you completely invisible — no last seen, no blue ticks, no typing indicator, all toggled with a single switch in the WA Plus settings panel.
5. Pin More Conversations
The official app limits you to 3 pinned chats. WhatsApp Plus lets you pin up to 1000 chats, keeping all your important conversations at the top.
6. Save High-Quality Photos Automatically
Disable automatic image compression in settings so every photo you receive is saved in its original resolution to your gallery.
7. Use Custom Notification Sounds Per Contact
Set unique notification tones for individual contacts so you always know who is messaging you without looking at your screen.
8. Hide Media from Gallery
Prevent WhatsApp Plus media from cluttering your phone gallery with the built-in hide media option in the storage settings.
9. Send a Blank Message
Use the special character feature to send an empty-looking message with no visible text — a fun trick to surprise contacts.
10. Translate Messages In-App
Long press any message and tap the translate button to instantly convert messages from any language directly inside the chat.
