How to leave a group chat on WhatsApp - in detail?
To leave a group chat on WhatsApp, follow these detailed steps:

- Navigate to the Group Chat: Scroll through your list of chats or use the search function to find the specific group you want to leave.
- Enter the Group Chat: Tap on the group chat to open it and view the messages.
- Access Group Info: In the upper part of the screen, tap on the group name or the three dots (⋮) next to it. This action will take you to the "Group Info" section.
- Scroll Down to Members: Within the "Group Info" section, scroll down until you see a list of all the members in the group.
- Find Yourself: Locate your name in the list of group members.
- Exit the Group: Next to your name, there will be an option labeled "Exit Group." Tap on this option.
