How to Hide Blue Ticks in MB WhatsApp: A Detailed Guide

MB WhatsApp is a popular modified version of WhatsApp that offers advanced privacy features, including the ability to hide blue ticks—the read receipt indicators that show when a message has been read. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to disable blue ticks in MB WhatsApp, along with alternative methods, risks, and considerations for using this modified app.

Understanding WhatsApp Ticks

Before diving into the steps, let’s clarify what the ticks mean in WhatsApp and MB WhatsApp:

• Single Grey Tick: The message has been sent from your device but not yet delivered to the recipient’s device.
• Double Grey Ticks: The message has been delivered to the recipient’s device but not yet read.
• Double Blue Ticks: The message has been read by the recipient.

In MB WhatsApp, the “Hide Blue Ticks” feature allows you to read messages without the sender seeing the blue ticks, giving you more control over your privacy. However, this feature is specific to modified apps like MB WhatsApp and is not available in the official WhatsApp app in the same way.

Requirements

• MB WhatsApp Installed: Ensure you have MB WhatsApp installed on your Android device. MB WhatsApp is not available on the Google Play Store, so you’ll need to download the latest APK from a trusted source.
• Backup Your Chats: Before making changes, back up your chats to avoid data loss. MB WhatsApp does not support Google Drive backups, so use the app’s built-in backup feature or a third-party tool like iToolab WatsGo.
• Enable Unknown Sources: Allow installation from unknown sources in your device settings to install the MB WhatsApp APK.
