Automates enabling the 'Advanced Chat Privacy' feature for all chats on WhatsApp™ Web.

Download

Install

Features & Capabilities

Enable Advanced Chat Privacy across your WhatsApp™ Web chats with one tool. Runs entirely in your browser and never exports your data.

Why?

Without enabling Advanced Chat Privacy, Meta AI can in some cases use part of your WhatsApp™ messages if users feed it into Meta AI.
Without this extension you will have to enable Advanced Chat Privacy seperately for all of your chats.
AI Offswitch automatically switches on Advanced Chat Privacy for the first 15-20 latest chats.

Key features

Automates privacy toggles per chat
Non-destructive: only enables, never disables
Human-like navigation with robust selectors
Optional notifications after enabling
Respects unread states where possible

How it works

Runs on web.whatsapp.com only
Opens each chat → Contact Info → Advanced Chat Privacy → enables if off

Is AI OffSwitch for WhatsApp™ Web Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

AI OffSwitch for WhatsApp™ Web requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

AI OffSwitch for WhatsApp™ Web is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
