How to delete a WhatsApp group with all participants that you created - in detail?
To delete a WhatsApp group that you have created, along with all its participants, follow these detailed steps:
- Open WhatsApp: Launch the WhatsApp application on your device. This can be done from either a smartphone or a tablet.
- Navigate to the Group: Locate and tap on the group you wish to delete. Ensure that this is a group you have created, as only the creator has the ability to delete it.
- Access Group Settings: Once inside the group chat, tap on the group name or the three vertical dots (⋮) in the top-right corner of the screen to open the group settings menu.
- Select 'Group Info': From the dropdown menu, choose "Group info". This will take you to a screen displaying all the group's details and participants.
- Delete Group: Scroll down to the bottom of the "Group info" screen. Here, you will find an option labeled "Delete group". Tap on it.
- Confirm Deletion: A confirmation dialog will appear, asking if you are sure you want to delete the group. Tap "DELETE" to confirm your action.
- Notify Participants (Optional): After deleting the group, WhatsApp provides an option to notify all participants about the group's deletion. This is optional but can be useful to inform everyone that the group has been removed. If you choose to notify participants, select "NOTIFY" and proceed with the notification process.
- Final Confirmation: A final confirmation screen will appear, indicating that the group has been successfully deleted and all participants have been notified (if you chose to do so). Tap "OK" to complete the process.
By following these steps, you will have effectively deleted the WhatsApp group along with all its participants. This action is irreversible, meaning the group cannot be restored once it has been deleted.
