### Steps to Edit Chat

- Firstly, you will need to either be an administrator of the chat, or have the chat ‘Manage’ permissions enabled.
- From within the chat, select the settings icon in the top right hand corner.
- From here, you can change the name, chat photo, members, admins and background photo.
- Select ‘Save’.

- **Pro Tip -** If you click and hold on a user, you can drag them between the administrators and members section easily.

### Steps to Leave a Chat

- From within the chat, select the settings icon in the top right hand corner.
- Select ‘Leave Group Chat’.
- Confirm.

- **NOTE:** If you do not have Chat ‘Manage’ permissions, you will no longer be able to view or contribute to this Chat group and would need to get another user with ‘Manage' permissions, or the Chat Admin to re-add you to this group.
