Leave a group message
Say what a group message is, and step out of one without a fuss.
A group message is one conversation with several people in it. What you write goes to all of them, and every reply comes back.
That is why a lunch thread can buzz forty times in an evening. You can quiet it, or leave.
Key points
- A group message sends what you write to everybody in it
- You can mute it for quiet, or leave it altogether
What to remember
- Nothing is announced beyond one short line.
- Muting keeps you in and quiet. Leaving takes you out.
Try this
Open a busy group on your own phone and press its name at the top. Look for Mute.
