Hi, many antimalware flag GBWhatsapp as PUA or malware. Could you address these issues?

Thanks

i used to love this app until i installed anti virus on my phone and it raised alarms of malware....independent scans from different anti viruses even virus-total, flags the app as malware PUP....so the developer is either aware of this and continues to ignore it thereby jeopardizing privacy and security of end users...

In all fairness it could be simply the fact that he changed the link to his own server. But it's hard to trust when there is no communication at all...

  1. I am not the creator of this app, it's some arabic guy behind http://www.gbmods.co/
  2. The app is marked as PuP since it's not the official version. That happens to all modded apps.
  3. I uploaded the source code so users can check if it's malware or not.

I downloaded the app from here https://theleaker.com/gbwhatsapp/, but it's not working now. It used to work great. Can anyone tell me where I can find the latest version of the app?
