How to kick an admin out of WhatsApp - in detail?
To remove an admin from a WhatsApp group, you need to follow these steps:
- Open the Group: Launch WhatsApp on your device and navigate to the group where you want to remove the admin.
- Access Group Information: Tap on the group name at the top of the screen to open the group information page.
- Group Participants: In the group info page, scroll down until you see the list of participants. This list includes all members of the group, with admins marked by a special icon next to their names.
- Remove Admin Status: Tap and hold on the name of the admin you want to remove. A menu will appear at the top of the screen with several options. Among these options, look for "Dismiss as Admin" (the exact wording may vary depending on your device and WhatsApp version). Tap on this option.
- Confirm Action: You may be prompted to confirm that you want to remove the admin status from this participant. Confirm the action by tapping "OK" or "Dismiss".
- Verify Changes: After removing the admin status, you can verify the change by going back to the participants list. The removed admin will no longer have the admin icon next to their name.
Important Note: Removing an admin from a group does not remove them from the group entirely. They will still be a part of the group as a regular participant, and you may need to remove them completely if that is your intention. To do this, follow these additional steps:
- Open Group Info Again: Go back to the group information page.
- Remove Participant: Tap on the name of the admin (now a regular participant) and select "Remove [Name] from Group".
- Confirm Removal: Confirm that you want to remove this participant by tapping "OK" or "Remove".
By following these steps, you can effectively manage the admin status within your WhatsApp group, ensuring only trusted members have administrative privileges.
