You can mute group notifications for a specified period of time. You'll still receive messages sent to the group, but your phone won't vibrate or make noise when they're received. Messages sent to muted chats won’t be displayed in the badge count on the WhatsApp icon unless you’re mentioned or replied to in the chat.
