When you leave a group chat, everyone is notified, which might be awkward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So if you’re quitting a chat, there’s no concealing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, WhatsApp is working on a silent-exit feature that could be available this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The WhatsApp sleuths at WABetaInfo, who often scan the app for new features, shared a screenshot of the feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“This screenshot is extremely clear: when you exit a WhatsApp group, other participants in the chat will not be notified,” WABetaInfo explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Only group admins will see who leaves the group; others will not.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A system message is usually posted in the chat when you quit a group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This informs the rest in the group that you’ve left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only the persons in charge of the group will notice the new update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your departure may still be noticed in a small group – at least gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, in larger gatherings, this may allow you to go silently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately, there is no set timetable for when the feature will be available to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“At the time, this feature is being developed on WhatsApp Desktop beta,” WABetaInfo revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It will be made available to users in a future release.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WhatsApp made yet another significant modification to groups recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A mind-boggling 512 persons can now be invited to a single chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
