Only Certain Users on WhatsApp > 자유게시판

If you are concerned about people adding you to WhatsApp groups without consent, there are a few settings you can modify to adjust how others can include you. Firstly, from an mobile device, go to settings, then Chats, then Groups.

To prevent others from adding you to groups without your knowledge in the short term, you can use a simple blocking feature. From the chat screen, click on the contacts icon and then Groups. There will be a " Invite to Group" text indicator next to your name, which needs to be tapped to allow or decline future invitations. One will have the option to decline after tapping on this indicator, then click block from the pop-up screen that shows up after tapping the "Decline Once" option. Click allow or accept as needed after that.

Swipe down to Join Group Confirmation, toggle it off to stop future initial requests and ask to join instead. The steps are the same to decline and whatsapp网页版登入 block an invitation if needed.
