✎ Key Points:
» If you’ve been removed from a WhatsApp group, you can rejoin by registering with a new mobile number or using the original invite link.
» Alternatively, you can request the group admin to add you back directly.
» Remember, WhatsApp allows users to join any group if they possess the invite link.
If you accidentally exited a group, simply reach out to the group admin and ask them to re-add you. Since it’s a friend, this should be an easy request.
Remember, you can’t generate a WhatsApp group invite link unless you’re the group admin. However, you can join a group using an invite link provided by another member.
How To Rejoin WhatsApp Group:
Try the following methods:
1. Ask Other Admins
Here are the steps to follow if you’ve been removed from a WhatsApp group by an admin:
Step 1: Open the group and access the group information or participants list.
Step 2: Obtain the contact details of the other group admins.
Step 3: Reach out to any of the admins via WhatsApp and request them to add you back to the group.
That’s all you need to do to rejoin the group, provided there are other admins available to facilitate your re-entry.
2. Without Admin Permission
If you possess the group invite link and aim to rejoin a group without requiring admin permission, follow these steps:
- Obtain the WhatsApp group invite link: Ensure you have the group joining link available.
- Click on the link to rejoin the group: Simply click on the invite link to re-enter the WhatsApp group.
- Ensure uniqueness of the joining number: Make sure the number you’re using to rejoin the group hasn’t been previously associated with it. If needed, utilize a different WhatsApp number for rejoining.
- Contact other admins (if available): If you were previously an admin and wish to regain admin privileges, reach out to other admins and request to be made an admin again.
3. Join Using WhatsApp Beta
Another method involves installing the WhatsApp beta version on your device:
- Install WhatsApp beta version: Download and install the WhatsApp beta version on your phone.
- Request group link: Ask a member of the group to send you the group link.
- Click on the link: Click on the group link sent by the member to be added back to the group.
- Verify the link: Follow the prompts to verify the link and rejoin the group.
By following these steps, you can rejoin the WhatsApp group without requiring admin permission or an invitation.
How To Create Group Link In WhatsApp:
Here’s a simple guide on how to create a group link on WhatsApp:
- Access group info: Navigate to the group info of the desired WhatsApp group.
- Generate group link: Look for the “Invite to Group via Link” option and click on it. Wait for the group link to be generated.
- Share or copy link: Once the link is created, you can share it with individuals who wish to join the group. Alternatively, you can copy the link to share via email or other platforms.
Using the QR code feature is another option to add members to the group without sending an invitation link.
If you want to revoke the link or if someone else has already added the person, you can choose the “Revoke Link” option.
Why Can’t You Join A WhatsApp Group:
You may have these reasons:
1. You are Blocked From Group
If you encounter difficulty joining a WhatsApp group, it could be because you’ve been blocked from rejoining after leaving the group multiple times. While it may seem routine, leaving a group multiple times within a short period can trigger WhatsApp to restrict your ability to rejoin, even with a valid group link.
Additionally, if you’ve previously reported a group on WhatsApp, it will be automatically blocked from your account. Even if the group admin sends you a new group link after you’ve left and reported the group, you won’t be able to rejoin.
2. Once Removed Can’t Join Without Admin Help
If a group admin removes you from a WhatsApp group, you won’t be able to rejoin using the previous link. You’ll require the admin’s assistance to rejoin the group.
To regain access, the admin must provide you with a new joining link or directly add you to the group. Unfortunately, you can’t add yourself back.
If there are multiple admins, you can message any of them to request an invitation and join using the provided link.
3. Accidentally left WhatsApp group
If you’ve mistakenly exited a WhatsApp group, you won’t be able to rejoin simply because of the accidental departure. The protocol remains unchanged. To rejoin, you’ll require a new invite link from the admin since the previous one will no longer function.
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Why can’t I add my friend to a WhatsApp group?
If you’re having trouble adding someone to a WhatsApp group, there are likely two reasons for this. Either the individual has recently exited the group and blocked the admins, or they’ve adjusted their settings to prevent anyone from adding them to WhatsApp groups.
WhatsApp introduced a feature in the privacy settings where users can specify who has permission to add them to groups: either their contacts or nobody at all.
2. Can I exit from a group when I am an admin there?
If you’re the sole admin of a WhatsApp group and wish to leave, it requires more than a single click. You must first designate another group member as an admin before you can exit. Make sure to select a current member of the group to become the new admin before proceeding with your departure.
3. How to add yourself back into that WhatsApp group you left?
If you’ve left a WhatsApp group, you’ll need assistance from the group’s admin to rejoin. Initially, the admin must add you back as a regular member of the group. Once you’ve been re-added, they can then reinstate your admin privileges within the group.
