Feature Request

Most helpful comment

Without this feature, people that use Signal without a smartphone are unable to leave groups (or create new ones). This makes them doomed to stay forever in all groups they ever joined, as there is no way to leave groups. Combined with #815 this is an extreme annoyance, that IMHO should be prioritized way higher.

The group update ui got lost in a redesign shuffe but it will be back again some day.

Also, the group creation UI disappeared.

Group creation remains inaccessible from Signal Desktop 0.37.0

Is group creation on the desktop version ever going to be fixed?

Yeah, I just landed here from Google after I discovered I had no idea how to start a group with two contacts from the Windows desktop client. And it turns out you can't. That's such a major functionality omission.

Will this feature (group creation and leave) ever come back? Seems really basic to me and this request is now 5 years old

Maybe this change would perfectly fit together with the roll-out of the new private group system?

+1 for adding / updating / removing / leaving groups from the desktop client.
