Stressed
because the notification from whatsApp group always come every second? Are you waiting
for important message but what always appears is chats from members in WhatsApp
group? Thinking of leaving the group? Hold on, before you decide to leave the
group you better try disable notification from whatsApp group that you joined.
By disabling
the notification of the group whatsApp that you followed, you will no longer
get all notification about new messages in those group, also if our phone is
not in silent-mode then if there is
notification (ringtone) ringing from your whatsApp application, it is sure not
a notification from a group, meaning it is a message or chat from an individual
contact or group that don’t give that special rules (Mute).
This feature
has actually been applied in other chat applications like in BBM there is a choice of "turn off notification" or in the Line App also have this kind of feature.
Although not a feature that is highlighted
(because other applications also provide it) but in fact, this feature is
very important and widely used by
users who are members of various groups in the chat application like whatsApp.
How to Disable Notifications From WhatsApp Group
- Open WhatsApp App
- Open the chat group you want to disable notifications for
- For Android, Click the Menu button ((the three-point symbol on the right)
- For iOS (iPhone), Click Group Name
- Select >Mute
- Choose the length of the group to be Mute or deactivate its notifications (8 Hours, 1 Week or 1 Year).
- Remove the checklist (uncheck) in the "show notification"
- Click >Ok. Done!
After
disabling the desired group you will no longer be distracted by the group's
notifications and you can focus on the
other important messages. The expected and important messages are sometimes
drowned by group notifications whose by frequencies are much more active than personal messages.
Can we change the settings back before the Mute time runs out (re-enable)?
Yes you can! If you think the timing is
off for too long or you can get back
in the group and want to get notifications from the group again you can remove
the Mute settings. Do the same steps in the way above but in step 5 select >Unmute.
Note: on How to Disable Notifications in WhatsApp Group
- Although the group is already in Mute mode, you can still read all existing and current conversations, and can also interact in the group as usual.
- You can mute more than one group at a time by applying the tutorials to each desired group (one by one)
- If the checklist "show notification" is not removed (checked) then you will still get a notification but will not use the sound (audio) even though you phone is not in silent mode.
- After the Mute-time is passed then the notification from the group will automatically return to its original settings.

Whether it's
a hobby group or an elementary school reunion, as long as it does not contain
content that negative or does not adversely affect your life, try not to leave from the group, we do
not know which friends we need in the future, or maybe from which broadcast that
often shared are one or two can inspire you and make you better. The rest, you have your own consideration for that
