Have you ever been a part of a WhatsApp group that no longer interests you but sends you too many messages? If yes, then you know how it feels to have your phone constantly buzzing with notifications from such a group. Being in a group that has lost its relevance can be frustrating, and it is natural to want to exit such groups. However, this can create an awkward situation, as it alerts your group mates that you have left the group. Luckily, there is now a way to exit a WhatsApp group without attracting attention.
In the past, you couldn’t exit a WhatsApp group without being noticed. The best thing you could do then was to mute the group’s notifications, but that was not enough. However, with the latest version of WhatsApp, it is now possible.
To exit a WhatsApp group without being noticed, you must first update your WhatsApp to the latest version. You can do this by visiting either the Google Play Store or App Store, depending on the operating system of your device.
Once you have updated your WhatsApp, follow these simple steps to exit any WhatsApp group you are no longer interested in:
- Open the WhatsApp app on your device.
- Tap on the WhatsApp group that you want to exit to open it.
- Once opened, tap on the group name at the top. This will show the group’s details, including a list of its members.
- Scroll to the bottom and tap on “Leave Group” which is written in red font colour.
- A prompt will appear, asking if you want to exit the group. Tap on “Exit” to confirm.
- You will have successfully left the WhatsApp group without drawing attention from the group members.
Note that while you can exit a WhatsApp group silently, only the group’s admin will be notified. Other group members won’t receive a notification but may still notice your absence from the group members’ list. They can also notice your absence by viewing the group’s past participants. However, this is much better than alerting all the group members because it helps you avoid any uncomfortable questions that might arise from them.
