Hey devs 👋
I want to share a project I recently launched: WhatsApp Automator, a Chrome extension that helps automate WhatsApp Web messaging in a safe, human-like, and privacy-focused way.
🤔 Why I Built This
Most WhatsApp automation tools I found were either:
Too aggressive (high risk of bans), or
Closed-source and ignored user privacy
I wanted to build something:
Developer-friendly
Transparent
Focused on safety and privacy
Fully compatible with Chrome Manifest V3
⚙️ What the Extension Can Do
🔄 Smart Automation
Send multiple messages automatically
Random delays between messages to mimic human behavior
Min/Max delay enforcement to avoid spam-like actions
⏰ Scheduling
Schedule message campaigns for a specific date and time
Supports delayed start with Chrome alarms
📥 Multiple Input Modes
JSON mode – paste a raw array of messages
Form Builder – add/remove messages via UI
Profiles mode – load users with phone & messages
API import (POST) – fetch campaigns from a backend
Auto-polling – periodically check for new configs
🎛️ Full Control
Start, Pause, Resume, Stop at any time
Settings persist even after closing Chrome
🔒 Privacy-First Features
I also added privacy tools for people who work in public or shared environments:
Blur chat messages
Blur recent chat previews
Blur images & videos
Blur profile photos
Blur message input area
Hover to reveal temporarily
🧠 Tech Stack & Architecture

Pure JavaScript, HTML, CSS
No external libraries
