What is MB WhatsApp?

MBWhatsApp, developed by Stefano YG of MBMods, is a modified WhatsApp application for Android that offers an iOS-inspired interface and enhanced features. With its unique mbwhat.app package, it can be installed alongside the official WhatsApp or Fouad iOS, allowing users to manage multiple accounts on one device. Not available on the Google Play Store, MBWhatsApp is installed via an APK file and creates a dedicated “MBWhatsApp” folder to store chats, photos, and videos. Key features include hiding online status, applying custom themes, and sending large files up to 1GB. To ensure data safety, users should back up chats before updating and download the APK from a trusted source to avoid issues.
