Ghost: Read without Blue Ticks

Ghost lets you read new messages without opening the messaging app, so no blue ticks, no "seen" and no read receipt is sent.

👻 HOW IT WORKS

Ghost reads the message notifications of the apps you choose (WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Signal, Instagram…) and shows them in one private inbox. The original app is never opened: the sender does not know you have read the message.

✨ FEATURES

• One inbox for all your messaging apps, grouped by conversation

• Read messages without blue ticks or "seen"

• Choose which apps Ghost captures

• Search, pin important messages, export them to a file

• Keep messages 7, 30, 90 days or forever, with a warning before anything is deleted

• Dark mode

🔒 PRIVACY

• Your messages never leave your phone: no account, no server, no cloud sync

• Messages are left out of Google backups

• The free version shows ads from Google AdMob, which receives your advertising ID, never your messages. In Europe and the UK you choose whether ads are personalized.

⚠️ GOOD TO KNOW

• Ghost can only show what the notification shows: long messages may be cut, photos and voice notes are not available

• Messages received before installing Ghost, or while notifications are turned off, cannot be read

• Some phones (Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung…) stop apps in the background: Ghost tells you how to keep it running

Ghost is not affiliated with WhatsApp, Meta, Telegram, Signal or any messaging service. Read receipts are controlled by each messaging app and their behavior may change.
