How to Leave Group Messages on iPhone 6

We’ve all been there: someone invites us to a group message and our phone is suddenly buzzing every five seconds. Fortunately, there’s a way to escape. Check out how to leave those annoying group messages on your iPhone 6.

  1. Open the Messages app, and navigate to the group message you want to leave.
  2. Tap on Details in the top right corner.
  3. Tap on the Leave this Conversation option to leave the conversation entirely.
  4. “Leave this Conversation” will be grayed out if not everyone in the group message is using iMessage.
    • If the Leave this Conversation option is greyed out, you can select the Do Not Disturb toggle.
    • This option prevents your phone from notifying you of new messages in the conversation.
  5. To completely disable your phone from receiving any group message notifications or a conversation showing in the Messages app, you can open the Messages menu in the Settings app and disabling the Group Messaging toggle.
    • NOTE: this prevents you phone from ever seeing or receiving notifications from any group messages you are added to as long as this toggle remains off.
