How do I change a group's owner in GroupMe?
Applies ToGroupMe

If you created a group and you want to either leave it or give control of the group to another member, you can do so. Only the current owner of the group can change the group's owner – other group members don't have the ability to do this.

  1. Select the group you created or own, then select the group avatar (profile picture).

  2. Select Settings  Settings button, then select Change Owner.

    Note: Make sure that the new owner is already a member of the group.

  3. Choose a new owner from the group's member list, then select Yes to confirm the ownership change.

    Important: Keep in mind that once you've changed the group's owner, you can't undo it.

  4. You'll receive a confirmation of the ownership change. Select Ok to dismiss the confirmation.
