Whatsapp is one of the leading messaging platforms developed by Meta. By using WhatsApp, you can send or receive text messages, audio, and videos. In addition, you can also create a group and can chat with your known members privately. Sometimes, users get annoyed by receiving too many message notifications from the WhatsApp group. To get rid of these messages, many users try to leave the group. But leaving the group will notify the other participants in the group that you are leaving. With the recent WhatsApp update (2.22.21.83), users can leave the WhatsApp group without any notification. Only the group admins will know the person who is leaving the group.
