Hate to use the app but many relatives only have one. Is there any privacy hardened versions for Android?

    Beeper is maybe an alternative. It is basically a matrix bridge. But not only for WhatsApp, also for signal and iMessage and many more. (Now in Beta, later 10$ a month subscription) https://www.beeper.com

      There’s nothing about Beeper that makes running WhatsApp through it more private. You’re still using the Meta platform, but you’re adding a new company in the chain. Your messages from the WhatsApp server get decrypted by Beeper then re-encrypted to be sent to you.
