How do I leave a family group?

You can leave a family group easily when you no longer want to participate.

If you leave a family group that shares a family group tree, your entry remains in the tree.

Tip: FamilySearch users can join up to ten family groups. If you are already a member of a family group, you can still join another.

2. Select Family Groups.
3. Click the family group that you want to leave.
4. In the Group and Tree Settings, click Leave.
5. Click Leave again.

Steps (Mobile App)

1. In the Family Tree mobile app, open the family groups feature:
   
   • Apple iOS: Tap More.
   • Android: In the top-left, tap the 3 lines.
2. Tap Family Groups.
3. For the group that you want to leave, tap View Group.
4. In the upper right, tap the 3 dots. (Note: if you are the group administrator, first tap Assign Admin and set someone else as the administrator—then continue).
5. Tap Leave Group.
6. Tap Leave in the pop-up message.
