GBWhatsApp is a little bit more advanced than regular WhatsApp and allows users to customize it as much as they want. You can send up to 90 photos at a time, and you can even read deleted messages. It also lets you customize things such as themes, changing stickers, you can use 2 WhatsApp account on the same device, and much more.
Is it safe to use GBWhatsApp?
GBWhatsApp is a modded version of WhatsApp. And to MOD any app, programmers make changes in the Real Code of App’s APK file. And while changing the Code, programmer also can add malware to the APK file.
Now, it’s on your luck, if you installed GBWhatsApp which has no malware then you are safe, but if it has malware then your data is on high-risk. And there is no way to check that your GBWhatsApp has malware or not.
However, there are some reports that say GBWhatsApp is one of the biggest source of data breach in India. So, there’s a high probability that if you are using GBWhatsApp, your data is not safe.
