Then, click on the name of the group and a choice will appear, one of which is to leave the group or Exit Group. Tap on the option and you will leave the group.
Quoting the official WhatsApp page, notifications of someone leaving the group in the chat room are often uncomfortable.
For this reason, WhatsApp created a new privacy feature to help users feel more comfortable leaving groups.
With this latest feature, only the admin will know if a member leaves the group.
When someone leaves the group, notifications or notifications stating you have left the group will not appear in the group chat column, but will only be received by the group admin.
