How to Leave a Viber Group?
If you no longer want to be a part of a Viber group, you have the option to leave and remove it from your chat list. Once you’ve left the group it doesn’t impact the group in any way and will still be available to the rest of the group members.
If at some point you change your mind and wish to return to the group, an admin will need to re-add you. After re-joining you will not be privy to any messages sent prior to you joining – including those sent when you were part of the group.
To leave a group you simply select the group you wish to leave, navigate to its chat information, then select “Leave and delete.” Continue reading for the steps on exactly how to do this from your mobile or desktop.
