What can you do with WhatsApp Plus?
This application is a modified version of the original WhatsApp and was developed in 2012 by the Spanish programmer Rafalense. The app was mainly developed to have greater customization over the program and many other improvements that you will know below.
Like the original, WhatsApp Plus allows users to chat, send photos, emojis, videos, documents, and files, but it also has functionalities that are not found in the official version, such as changing the color of chats and the interface.
Another advantage is that you can use two accounts at the same time on WhatsApp Plus, something that is not possible in the original app. In addition, you can customize your account by adding more privacy by choosing which contacts you do not want to see you online and even changing the time of your "last connection".
What are the disadvantages of WhatsApp Plus?
Many experts claim that using WhatsApp Plus is not the most recommended. While the application is not inherently dangerous, it can pose a risk to the security of your private data. Being an unofficial app, it uses servers different from the original and can be victims of hacking attacks.
On the other hand, WhatsApp can ban your account if it detects the use of this app and you could have many problems trying to recover it, so it is not advisable to install this application on your cell phone.
"If you received a message within the application notifying that your account is 'temporarily suspended', it means that you are probably using an unauthorized version of WhatsApp instead of the official WhatsApp application. If after your account has been temporarily suspended you do not start using the official version of WhatsApp, your account could be permanently suspended," the company said in a statement.
