What is how to remove someone from a group text?

Okay, here's information on how to remove someone from a group text message, formatted in Markdown with the requested links:

Removing someone from a group text message depends largely on the messaging platform you're using and whether the group is an iMessage (iOS) or SMS/MMS (mixed device) group.

  • iMessage (Apple Devices): If everyone in the group text is using iMessage (i.e., you see blue message bubbles), you can usually remove someone fairly easily.

    1. Open the group text message.
    2. Tap the group icon at the top of the conversation.
    3. Tap the "info" button (usually a lowercase "i" in a circle).
    4. Scroll down to the list of participants.
    5. Tap the name of the person you want to remove.
    6. Select "Remove from Conversation".

    Important Considerations for iMessage: You must have at least three other participants in the group to see the "Remove from Conversation" option. You cannot remove someone if you aren't the originator of the group text in some cases or if the group is just you and one other person.

  • SMS/MMS (Mixed Devices - Android & iOS): If the group text includes users who are not using iMessage (i.e., you see green message bubbles), it's typically an SMS/MMS group. In this case, there is generally no way for a participant to directly remove someone. SMS/MMS protocols don't support that feature.

    • Workaround (Starting a New Group): The only way to "remove" someone from an SMS/MMS group is to start a new group text with all the desired participants, excluding the person you want to remove. Everyone will need to be informed you are leaving the old group to create a new group. Please see this link for more information about starting%20new%20group%20text
  • Third-Party Messaging Apps (WhatsApp, Signal, etc.): The process varies by app, but most third-party messaging apps offer administrative controls within group chats to remove participants. Look for "Group Info" or "Group Settings" options within the chat. The process usually involves selecting the participant and then choosing a "Remove" or similar option.
