    Open the WhatsApp app and go to the group chat you want to leave. Tap the group name at the top to access Group Info. Scroll down and select Exit Group. Confirm your decision to leave the group. Once you exit, you will no longer receive messages or notifications from the group. You can also choose to delete the group to remove it from your chat list.
