What is Whatsapp GB, and How Does It Work?

Whatsapp GB is an alternative app to the standard version of Whatsapp, a more advanced version than standard Whatsapp, and continues to be developed with new features every day.

Using GB Whatsapp

The appearance of Whatsapp GB is similar to the standard Whatsapp, but when we click on the three dots (menu options) in the upper right corner, the GB Settings menu is displayed.

Now, let's start digging into the settings of these menu options from top to bottom a bit so we can understand the actual GB difference from the standard version.

The entire list of app settings consists of eleven number tabs and many other subtabs, such as Download and Theme Update.

When we click on the theme store tab, we are faced with enough themes for all tastes, aligned from new to old.

The only thing users need to do is apply the theme by clicking 'Apply' the theme they like. The theme settings will be activated automatically, but it is recommended to restart the application for the program to work properly.

1. Conversation Screen
This screen consists of four tabs, each consisting of four sub-tabs

1.1 Header
1.2 Chat
1.3 Translucent mode
1.4 Photos

2. Home Screen / Chat
The second section of the main configuration consists of seven titles and each title consists of multiple subtitles. I will refer only to some of these specific settings in your section to keep this article concise

2.5.1 When activated, a short message about the "toast" is displayed silently on the screen when the people we talk to are online.

2.5.2 Allows you to choose a warning tone for each toast message in the numbered configuration. My personal opinion is that do not select a warning tone for the "toast" as it can be annoying

2.5.3 If toast is enabled, we can choose the location of the message on the screen. Here we can choose a toast message at the top, middle or bottom of the screen.

2.5.4 Lets you choose how long the gift message stays on the screen.

2.5.7, A message about this appears on the screen for a short period of time when the people we talk to change the profile picture

3. Media sharing
3.1 The Upload Size Limit (video) will allow upload size expenses of up to 50 MB.

3.2 Image Quality mode allows us to send and receive better quality images compared to normal Whatsapp, as the regular app restricts the quality of images to decrease the quality of transmitted messages and limit data transfer.

3.3 Upload size limit (audio) This option allows you to increase the limit of sharing audio files by up to 100 MB.

3.6 The video limit for status is one of the most important options; because while Whatsapp limits status videos for up to 30 seconds, this option allows us to publish status videos for up to 7 minutes when selected.
