there are some modded Whatsapp versions that add features that don't exist in the official version, like hiding typing indicator for you while still being able to see the other person's, same with read markers, and so on. while I've never tried any myself, some of them seem to be legitimate.
they are, but they probably also install a bunch of other stuff, I've had one once. had to reset my phone.
I ran yowhatsapp for like 5 years, was great until whatsapp forced me to use the official app
