Managing Text in Group chat

I have and iPhone 7 plus and I do not get the option to remove myself from a group chat or to add someone. I know you have to go to the "info" up at the top but when I do, neither option is there. Why is that? I am currently on ios 12.3.1

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 12

Leave a group text

In the Messages app, you can leave a group text at any time, as long as there are three other people on the thread. Here's how:

  1. Go to the group text that you want to leave.
  2. Tap the top of the conversation. 
  3. Tap , then tap Leave this Conversation.


To leave a group text, all participants need to be using iMessage. If you don't see the option to leave, it might mean one or more of the users isn't using a device with iMessage. You can't remove yourself from these group texts, but you can mute the conversation.
