WAWebSender's privacy page targets users who want to hide WhatsApp Web messages, media, and profile photos. Tabu is different: it is a focused WhatsApp Web blur extension built around simple visual privacy rather than a broader WhatsApp tools ecosystem.
What each product offers
WhatsApp productivity ecosystem
WAWebSender
WAWebSender sits closer to a WhatsApp productivity and sender ecosystem. Its privacy page is useful because it explains the pain clearly: WhatsApp Web can expose messages, media, and profile details when the screen is visible.
The broader product context matters. Users who already want sender workflows, business messaging, or adjacent WhatsApp tools may evaluate WAWebSender because privacy is one part of a bigger workflow.
Standalone privacy blur
Tabu
Tabu removes the broader toolkit and focuses on one privacy job. It blurs WhatsApp Web locally and keeps the hovered message, chat row, composer, menu, or reaction usable.
That narrower scope helps users understand the extension quickly. There is no need to learn a business messaging platform when the job is simply to keep private chats from being readable in a public space.
The honest decision
Choose WAWebSender if your privacy need is connected to a broader WhatsApp business or sender workflow.
Choose Tabu if the job is narrower and more personal: open WhatsApp Web in a cafe, classroom, office, or meeting without exposing private conversations on the screen. Tabu's differentiator is simplicity and design: it keeps the product focused so visual privacy feels natural instead of operational.
