Fouad WhatsApp 8.70: The King of Modifications

Fouad WhatsApp is without a doubt the best WhatsApp MOD at the moment, as of today 99% of MODs are based on it, so if we have to think about the real successor to WA PLUS, it is undoubtedly this modification, which update after update proves to be the best of all.

It owes its peculiar name to its developer, Fouad Mokdad, that’s why this modification of WhatsApp is also known as FMWhatsApp, name that inherits one of its installation packages. An application that was born from YoWhatsApp, and today has been able to surpass it.

Features

This is a modification of WhatsApp that provides us with hundreds of extra features over the original application, such as customization, themes, style changes, application locking, conversation locking, PRIVACY modifications and much more.

We can customize Fouad WhatsApp with hundreds of themes available for download from the application itself. We can completely customize the look and feel of the themes, hundreds of options for doing so, including the ability to edit font size, color, and type, among many other options.

In terms of privacy we can configure it as we want, such as becoming completely invisible to our contacts, seeing messages or states without being detected, blue ticks only appear if we answer a message and many more privacy options in contacts, groups and broadcast messages.

And as for extra features, you’ll find plenty of them, like states up to 250 characters, using up to 3 WhatsApp accounts on the same device, hiding notifications, not compressing sent photos so they don’t lose quality, sending media files up to 90 MB, and so on.
