Do you feel that you don’t belong to a group chat on Instagram and want to know how to leave that Instagram group chat?
When Instagram first introduced messaging back in 2013 group chat started to gain attention in 2020.
However, there is an issue with leaving the group chat that people are still facing.
To leave an Instagram group chat, open that chat, and tap on the “i” icon at the top right of the chat page, then scroll down to the bottom of the page and tap on “Leave Chat”; If you don’t see the “Leave Chat” option, you need to mute the chat until you’re able to leave it later.
Some accounts still can’t see the “Leave Chat” button because of a bug or glitch.
Instagram’s updates may affect the group chat feature, which may keep some users on the chats without being able to leave them.
Today I will teach you how to leave an Instagram group chat.
Why Can’t I Leave Group Chat Instagram?
You can’t leave a group chat on Instagram because you’re not able to see the “Leave Chat” button.
This is due to a bug or glitch on the Instagram app.
It could happen with an old Instagram account.
This is because when Instagram rolls out a new feature or update it may take some time to cover whole Instagram accounts.
You may not be able to leave a group if your Instagram app isn’t updated.
It might be that your phone doesn’t update the app automatically.
So you may miss the new update, and you’ll not get the new features or the bug fixes.
In some cases, when your phone is full of apps or a bug happens, you won’t receive update notifications from the Play Store, nor they will download automatically.
How To Leave an Instagram Group Chat
To leave an Instagram group, you need to navigate to the chat page, then open the chat settings and tap on “Leave Group”.
Keep in mind that you can leave the group even if you are the admin.
Here’s how it’s done:
- Open the group chat page on Instagram;
- Tap on the “i” icon at the top right of the page, or tap on the “Account Images” at the top;
- When the new page opens, scroll down to the bottom and tap on “Leave Chat”;
However, keep in mind that if someone decides to add you back to the group, you may see yourself in the same group again.
Now if you’ve decided to get back to the group chat, you can always do so by asking one of the group members to let you in.
They will then contact the admin of the chat page, and add you back.
There are no other options to get back to the Instagram group chat after leaving it.
It’s only possible by contacting the new admins who may be your friends
