How to activate WhatsApp Halloween mode 

Through a few simple steps, WhatsApp can be put into what is known as Halloween mode. To celebrate the occasion, the icon will be personalized with an aesthetic alluding to the holiday. Unlike many other tools with similar characteristics that the service has, this one depends on a third-party application. The level of use that Meta’s messaging service has built since its launch gave it global relevance.

In this context, the desire for personalization is increasing among users, who can choose not only between different privacy settings and how they prefer to view the platform, but also in terms of aesthetics.

For this reason, many resort to third-party applications to have some additions. Through that process, Halloween mode can be activated.For that, it will be necessary to download the Nova Launcher app. The first step will be to write its name in the Play Store search engine and download it. Once this is done, the application will have to be selected as the default desktop of the device. This can be done from the cell phone settings. Next, you have to find a PNG image with the WhatsApp logo edited in the Halloween style.

These can be easily found with Google or any other search engine. The next thing will be to open Nova Launcher and keep the icon of the Meta platform selected for a few seconds. In the options that will be displayed, choose “edit”, select the icon and there apply the recently downloaded image. After these simple steps, the app icon will be seen with the Halloween aesthetic until the user decides to change it again. It should be noted that it can be replaced by any image and that it will be available to each person.

The described process works only for Android with this particular app, but iOS users can download another launcher and carry it out in a very similar way.

On the other hand, it is also important to make it clear that this does not affect the operation of the messaging service in any way, since it only acts on the icon. This last one is the important difference with some unofficial versions of WhatsApp that generated account deactivation and problems with the platform.

What both Nova and other launchers do is modify the desktop and the organization in which the apps are presented within the mobile device. The tool is very useful for users to customize these issues in detail.
