Welcome to Android Central! You typically can't remove yourself from a group text. Ask people in the group to abandon this group text and create a new group without your number.

Might not be able to remove yourself, but you can mute individual text thread

Its absurd that I cannot easily remove myself from a group text, especially since I didn't want to be in them
I have to call the person who started it to take me out?!! Seriously?! Csll Samsung and complain 1 800 726 7864

You can block a number from calling or texting you.

How would this be Samsung's problem? If you give your number to someone, they can text you. How would you expect them to implement this? Lol.

That happens with any phones since carriers control that (pretty much). Just mute the thread.
