What can WhatsApp Plus do that WhatsApp cannot?

However, WhatsApp Plus has some interesting features onboard compared to WhatsApp, whereby WhatsApp has caught up significantly since the last update.

- You can hide your online status with WhatsApp Plus. WhatsApp has also offered you the option to hide your online status since the last update. You can also get this service for free from WhatsApp.
- With WhatsApp Plus you can easily access the settings or your profile using a 4×1 widget. WhatsApp has kept its fans waiting for a widget for a long time, but the app now comes with a practical widget for Android lock screens that shows you the unread messages from recent conversations.

Is it worth switching from WhatsApp to WhatsApp Plus?
WhatsApp Plus looks attractive at first glance, there are also massive disadvantages.
- As already mentioned, WhatsApp Plus is by no means free if you want to use interesting features such as hiding online status or hiding notifications.
- However, paying with your personal data is far worse. WhatsApp Plus demands – like WhatsApp, however – a lot of and above all very extensive rights from you. To make matters worse, in this case, you do not even know who you are granting access to, because who or what exactly is behind the author “Rafalense” is completely unknown.
- You have to ask yourself the question of whether you want to give so much insight and data from your personal area to a completely unknown person or organization. However, there are other interesting alternatives to WhatsApp, which we also do not want to withhold from you.
