Leaving a group text depends on the type of phone and messaging app you are using. Here are instructions for the most common platforms:

How to Leave a Group Text

On iPhone (iMessage)

  1. Open the Messages app.
  2. Select the group conversation you want to leave.
  3. Tap the group icons or the group name at the top of the screen.
  4. Scroll down and tap “Leave this Conversation.”
    • Note: This option only appears if everyone in the group is using iMessage (blue bubbles), and there are at least three other people in the group.
  5. Confirm if prompted.

If you don’t see the option to leave, it means:

  • The group includes non-iPhone users (SMS/MMS).
  • The group has fewer than 4 people.

In that case, you can mute the conversation instead:

  • Tap the group name or icons.
  • Toggle on “Hide Alerts” to stop notifications.

On Android (Google Messages or other SMS apps)

Most SMS group texts on Android don’t have a direct “leave” option because they use MMS. However, you can:

  • Mute the conversation :
    1. Open the group text.
    2. Tap the three-dot menu or group name.
    3. Select “Notifications” or “Mute notifications” to silence alerts.
  • Ask the group to remove you or start a new conversation with only the people you want.

On WhatsApp or Other Messaging Apps

If you are using a third-party app like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Facebook Messenger:

  • Open the group chat.
  • Tap the group name or settings.
  • Scroll down and tap “Exit Group” or “Leave Group.”
