Leave WhatsApp Group Without Notification
The Group Messaging Feature on WhatsApp allows you to set up WhatsApp Groups with friends, relatives and even strangers who share the same interests. Interacting with people in a WhatsApp group can be a fun filled activity. However, you may now be at a point in your life where you do not have the time or even the interest to be a part of this WhatsApp group that you used to be so actively involved with. In such a situation you can just leave the group without caring about the reaction from other members in the group. However, such an action may be seen as being rude, impolite and inappropriate by others. Hence, a better solution is to just turn off WhatsApp notifications for a long period of time. This is as good as leaving the Group, because you will no longer be bothered with notifications and won’t know what is happening in the Group, unless you want to.
