WhatsApp *mod* [APK](https://bestforandroid.com/apk/ "apps apk download") Version **2.26.7.74** · AN Mods · `com.anwhatsapp` A gold-themed third-party WhatsApp mod built by AN Mods, with deeper privacy controls, ghost mode, custom themes and message tools layered on top of the messenger you already know. 2.26.7.74 Version 119 MB Size [Android](https://bestforandroid.com/ "best android guides") 6+ Requires Free Price What is *AN WhatsApp* --------------------- AN WhatsApp is a modified version of WhatsApp, maintained by the developer group known as AN Mods. It is not built by WhatsApp Inc. or Meta. Instead, it takes the familiar WhatsApp interface and adds a long list of privacy, appearance and chat features that the official app keeps locked down or leaves out entirely. The signature look is a gold accent theme that sets it apart from the standard green at a glance. The appeal is simple. People who want more say over what others can see about them, more control over how the app looks, and a few extra messaging tricks reach for a mod like this one. AN WhatsApp focuses heavily on the privacy side: hiding your last seen, typing status and blue ticks on a per-contact basis rather than as one blunt on or off switch. Because it shares the same package family as a WhatsApp build, AN WhatsApp installs as a separate app and signs in with your number the same way the official client does. The trade-off is that it lives outside the Play Store and outside Meta’s support, which is the reason every section on this page treats it as an unofficial, use-at-your-own-risk download. A look at *the app* ------------------- ![AN WhatsApp mod APK interface preview](https://bestforandroid.com/apk/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/icon145.png) What this *mod offers* ---------------------- - **Granular privacy controls**Hide last seen, blue ticks, the second tick, typing and recording status, and online presence. Each can be set per contact rather than globally. - **Ghost mode**A quick toggle that hides your activity in one tap, so you can read and reply without broadcasting that you are online. - **Custom themes and gold styling**A built-in theme store plus the signature gold look, letting you restyle chat bubbles, headers and icons beyond the default palette. - **Larger media and status limits**Send longer video clips, set status updates that run past the usual cap, and share higher-resolution images without the standard compression. - **Anti-revoke and read-deleted messages**Keep messages and statuses that the sender later deletes, so a recalled message still shows on your side of the chat. - **Anti-ban patches**The build ships with the developer’s latest anti-ban work. It lowers the risk of a flag but does not remove it, since this is still an unofficial client. How to *install* ---------------- 1. **Back up your chats first**In official WhatsApp, open Settings, Chats, Chat backup and run a fresh backup so your history is safe before you switch. 2. **Download the APK**Tap the download button on this page. The file lands in your Downloads folder. 3. **Allow installs from this source**Open Settings, search `Install unknown apps`, find your browser or file manager, and toggle the permission on. 4. **Open the downloaded file**Tap the APK in Downloads. Android’s package installer opens and lists the permissions it needs. 5. **Install and verify your number**Confirm the install, open AN WhatsApp, and verify with the same phone number you use on WhatsApp. Restore your backup when prompted.
