GB WhatsApp is a modified version of WhatsApp that offers additional features, such as enhanced privacy options, customizable themes, and the ability to use multiple accounts. Since GB WhatsApp is not available on the Google Play Store, updating it requires manual intervention. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to update GB WhatsApp safely.
Steps to Update GB WhatsApp
1. Backup Your Chats
Before updating, it's always a good idea to back up your chats to avoid losing any important messages.
- Open GB WhatsApp.
- Go to Settings > Chats > Chat Backup.
- Tap Back Up to save your chats to Google Drive or local storage.
2. Enable Installation from Unknown Sources
Since GB WhatsApp is not available in the Google Play Store, you must enable the option to install apps from unknown sources.
- Go to Settings > Security (or Privacy on some phones).
- Look for the Install Unknown Apps or Install from Unknown Sources option.
- Enable this for the file manager or browser app you will use to download the update.
3. Download the Latest GB WhatsApp APK
To get the latest version of GB WhatsApp, you will need to download the APK (Android installation file) from a trusted third-party source.

4. Install the APK File
After downloading the APK file, you can proceed with the installation.
- Open your File Manager app and navigate to the Downloads folder.
