Hey @wings ! Thanks for the questions here.

The first person listed in the **Members** tab is the group creator — “owner” is a title tricky to define because the group chat creator doesn’t really have special privileges over the group. To that point:

No, the group chat creator cannot remove members from the group (unless they are an admin). Otherwise, members need to leave on their own.

Is there a particular situation that you’re running into where more control over the group chat membership would be helpful?
