What is wechatluckymoney?

WechatLuckyMoney is a plug-in that automatically grabs red envelope (money gift) packets in the Chinese messaging app WeChat. In WeChat culture, people send digital red envelopes in group chats, and whoever taps first claims the money. This tool makes your phone intercept and open them almost instantly, faster than any human could react. The plug-in runs on something called the Xposed framework, which is a tool for Android that lets add-ons modify how other apps behave under the hood. Rather than interacting with WeChat's normal interface, it taps into the app's internal workings to detect when a red envelope appears and claims it right away. There is a whitelist feature for avoiding certain chats. Since avoiding specific conversations broke every time WeChat updated, the creator flipped the approach: you look up a person's or group's WeChat ID on their info page, copy it, and paste it into a list of IDs to skip. The plug-in will ignore red envelopes from anyone on that list. It also includes an automatic transfer-accepting feature. The developer added this after hearing from a delivery worker whose customers often paid by WeChat transfer, but who was too busy to accept the payments manually before they expired. The same automation now handles those transfers. The creator notes that the speed is aggressive enough to annoy other people in group chats, so they suggest using it carefully. The README does not go into detail about setup steps or which WeChat versions are supported beyond the note about ongoing adaptation.
