Mikael KARA, 2025-02-20Parece boa tbm, porém não sei qual é a lógica de ao usar a função de privacidade a extensão borra o nome do contato e foto na barra lateral mas ao abrir a conversa desse contato o nome dele e foto é exibida normalmente. Não faz o menor sentido isso. Não sei se é um bug, mas acho que não, pois outras extensões que testei funcionam igual. Mas seria interessante rever esse ponto.
