    Today I’m going to show you exactly how to stop people from adding you to WhatsApp groups in 2021.

    This reduces the chances for unknown contacts to have access to you, spam and potentially defraud you. And I’m going to show you in 7 simple steps how to have this all set up.

    Let’s get started!

    WhatsApp Groups and its Flaws?

    WhatsApp groups are great for staying in touch with friends and family, some organizations use it as a medium to communicate with their staff too. You should be in one or two, either family, old school colleagues group, business associates etc.

    But Whatsapp groups can be a nuisance and be spammy.

    Yeah, I know,

    It’s annoying to continuously receive notifications from groups that you don’t like such as Ponzi investment schemes, people that want to sell or market products that you don’t need.

    These Whatsapp group conversations can be very annoying especially when you’re dragged into them without your consent.

    And, there are many people fond of adding people to Whatsapp group without their consent.

    According to WhatsApp Downloads and Tips, the three common cons of WhatsApp groups are:

    • Getting access to excess unwanted information
    • Privacy threats
    • Time and storage consuming…

    And this gets more annoying when you’re being added into one without your consent!

    Well, some people either mute the group in notification settings or they just leave the group.

    For those that love their privacy, by the time you delete and exit the group your mobile number has already been exposed.

    Also, even though you end up blocking a contact, that doesn’t stop you from receiving messages that the contact sends in any group that the both of you have in common – And vice versa!

    Another way is blocking people that are fond of adding you to groups without your permission.

    But still, all that does not stop people from adding you to groups without your consent!

    Learning how to stop people from adding you to WhatsApp groups is essential in 2021 to protect your privacy, phone storage capacity and others.

    Also blocking the group admin prevents him or her from adding you to groups, but now WhatsApp supports multiple admins to a group. So, he can make anyone as group admin and the new admin can add you to the group. So you need to block all admins.

    Also, If you block the group admin, you can’t contact him anymore. So a personally blocking cannot be an option if you still want to have a conversation with the person. break the contact and relationship between you and admin.

    So, what then is the solution?

    I don’t want to stop further chat with my friends by blocking them but I don’t want them to add me to any of their many groups on WhatsApp.

    How can I then stop people from adding me to WhatsApp groups without my consent?
