How to rejoin a WhatsApp group if you left it yourself - in detail?

Rejoining a WhatsApp group after leaving it yourself is a straightforward process, provided you follow the correct steps. Here’s a detailed guide on how to achieve this:

1. Understanding Group Membership Dynamics: When you leave a WhatsApp group, your membership status changes from "Participant" to "Outside of Group." However, you can rejoin if you are still invited by an administrator or another member who has the necessary permissions.

2. Invitation Methods: There are two primary ways to receive an invitation to rejoin a WhatsApp group:

   • Direct Invite Link: An admin or any group member with sufficient privileges can generate a direct invite link and share it with you. This link is unique to your contact and allows you to easily rejoin the group without needing administrative approval within the group itself.
   • Group Invitation: Alternatively, an admin can add you back directly through the group’s settings. To do this, the admin needs to go to the group info, select "Add Participants," search for your contact, and then send a join request. You will receive a notification that you have been invited to rejoin the group.

3. Using an Invite Link: If you receive an invite link:

   • Open WhatsApp on your device.
   • Tap on the three dots (menu) in the upper right corner of the screen.
   • Select "Groups."
   • At the bottom, tap on "Invited to Join" or a similar option.
   • Find the group you were invited to and tap on it.
   • Review the group details and tap on "Join Group."

4. Accepting an Invitation: If you receive an invitation notification:

   • Open WhatsApp.
   • Navigate to the chat list where you’ll see a banner at the top indicating that you have been invited to join a group.
   • Tap on "Join Group."
   • Review the group details and tap on "Join Group" again to confirm your decision.

5. Group Settings for Admins: If you are an admin of the group, remember that you can manage who can invite new members by adjusting the group settings:

   • Go to the group info page.
   • Tap on the group name at the top.
   • Select "Group Settings."
   • Under "Send Messages," choose who can add participants (either "All Participants" or "Only Admins").

By following these steps, you should be able to rejoin a WhatsApp group with ease, whether you left it yourself or were removed by an admin.
