blurrit's Issues

Blur option for conversations too

If user wants they can customize the blur option for conversations. and on hovering that particular conversation unblurs. Otherwise whole conversation can be showed. We leave that upto user's preference.

Archived chat list not getting blurred

Contacts that are present in the 'archive' section, they ("name of the contact") are not getting blurred.

[REQUEST] Toggle for media visibility

Would like to request a feature which blurs out the media previews in the conversation. Upon focusing the media it unblurs.

bug: error downloading the extension on Linux

[BUG] After installation chrome stops working.

I installed this extension on my work laptop managed by admin. After installation, the WhatsApp web won't load, and chrome won't open even after restarting it. After the system restart chrome works (without the extension enabled). I don't know how I can debug the issue let me know of any fix.

Unblur search new chat button above chats

chat hover, not section hover

on hovering I should see only the chat I hover on not whole section

Blur sender name in starred messages

Blur community tab

Blur option for hiding conversations

If user wants they can customize the blur option for conversations. and on hovering that particular conversation unblurs. Otherwise whole conversation can be showed. We leave that upto user's preference.

A Toggle to turn on/off blur effect

When the extension is installed, the blurring effect gets activated and we cannot see the chat names when needed. A toggle which can turn on/off blur effect can be useful.

enhancement: Try and blur `@mentions` in the messages.

unblurs on scrolling chat section

it maybe because on hovering it unblurs, but what if I want to scroll down and not let anyone see the chats

architecture: Decouple the list of classes to be blurred in a separate JSON file.

You can store the classes to be blurred in a separate JSON file.

• This can potentially ease the process of updating/adding newer classes of elements to be blurred.

potential customizations

• A toggle for blur (#3)
• A blur toggle/checkbox for:
  • Side Chat List
  • Blur WhatsApp Chat Name
  • Blur WhatsApp Message Name
• A slider for level of blur?
