WhatsApp will soon let you slip out of group chats undetected - CNBC

WhatsApp is launching a new feature that will allow users to leave lengthy group chats without alerting others to their exit.

Currently, pulling out of a WhatsApp group chat can be an awkward affair as everyone in the chat is informed when you leave.

In a Facebook post Tuesday, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta which owns WhatsApp, said it would "keep building new ways to protect your messages and keep them as private and secure as face-to-face conversations.".

"At WhatsApp, we're focused on building product features that empower people to have more control and privacy over their messages," said Ami Vora, head of product at WhatsApp, in a statement?
