Pure instant messaging — simple, fast, secure, and synced across all your devices. One of the top 5 most downloaded apps in the world with over 1 billion active users.
FAST: Telegram is the fastest messaging app on the market, connecting people via a unique, distributed network of data centers around the globe.
SYNCED: You can access your messages from all your phones, tablets and computers at once. Telegram apps are standalone, so you don’t need to keep your phone connected. Start typing on one device and finish the message from another. Never lose your data again.
UNLIMITED: You can send media and files, without any limits on their type and size. Your entire chat history will require no disk space on your device, and will be securely stored in the Telegram cloud for as long as you need it.
SECURE: We made it our mission to provide the best security combined with ease of use. Everything on Telegram, including chats, groups, media, etc. is encrypted using a combination of 256-bit symmetric AES encryption, 2048-bit RSA encryption, and Diffie–Hellman secure key exchange.
100% FREE & OPEN: Telegram has a fully documented and free API for developers, open source apps and verifiable builds to prove the app you download is built from the exact same source code that is published.
POWERFUL: You can create group chats with up to 200,000 members, share large videos, documents of any type (.DOCX, .MP3, .ZIP, etc.) up to 2 GB each, and even set up bots for specific tasks. Telegram is the perfect tool for hosting online communities and coordinating teamwork.
RELIABLE: Built to deliver your messages using as little data as possible, Telegram is the most reliable messaging system ever made. It works even on the weakest mobile connections.
FUN: Telegram has powerful photo and video editing tools, animated stickers and emoji, fully customizable themes to change the appearance of your app, and an open sticker/GIF platform to cater to all your expressive needs.
SIMPLE: While providing an unprecedented array of features, we take great care to keep the interface clean. Telegram is so simple you already know how to use it.
PRIVATE: We take your privacy seriously and will never give any third parties access to your data. You can delete any message you ever sent or received for both sides, at any time and without a trace. Telegram will never use your data to show you ads.
For those interested in maximum privacy, Telegram offers Secret Chats. Secret Chat messages can be programmed to self-destruct automatically from both participating devices. This way you can send all types of disappearing content — messages, photos, videos, and even files. Secret Chats use End-to-End Encryption to ensure that a message can only be read by its intended recipient.
We keep expanding the boundaries of what you can do with a messaging app. Don’t wait years for older messengers to catch up with Telegram — join the revolution today.

Buggy update
Priyamop
I am a devoted Telegram user and have been favoring it over WhatsApp for a significant period. However, in the past 10-12 days, I’ve encountered some substantial difficulties with the app that have become increasingly frustrating. One issue I’ve experienced is that sent chats randomly change their position from the right side to the left, causing confusion and making it seem as if someone else sent the messages. Additionally, the functionality of mentions within group chats has been inconsistent. I’ll receive notifications for up to 6 mentions, but when I attempt to open them, they are marked as read automatically, leaving me unable to keep track of important messages. Furthermore, at times, when I revisit a chat after a few days, the app automatically takes me to a particular conversation, disrupting the user experience. Lastly, I’ve also noticed issues with scrolling within chats. These problems have been disruptive to my overall Telegram experience, and I hope the development team can address them promptly.
Great app with few issues

I’ve been using this app for regularly few months now, everything is great. There are way more features than other apps. Nut there are few issues which I observed.1. Last seen/ online badge issue : sometimes this works perfectly and shows last seen time in hours. But sometimes it shows that the next person is online while in reality they are offline. This takes around 5 mins to reflect the offline status. Also If I have to check the actual time the person was last online I have to go into contact info and then I can check the time.2. App crash : This one is more annoying. Whenever I try to search a sticker it crashes. Also if the sticker has some animation when we tap on it, then also sometimes the app either lags or crashes.
App designed from user’s perspective and not business perspective.

A beautiful app designed the way a user would love to use a messaging service. Simplistic approach with a complex design.I would love to see a feature in groups, wherein admins of the group (collectively) can block messaging in the group for a certain time window. Backstory: most of the groups now a days are being used by society/community members, schools, colleges, offices etc. The primary need of these groups is just to pass information rather than having informal discussion. However the most common problem that happens in these groups is someone would start a sensitive topic and arguments and debates escalates. So if admins have rights to close discussions in a group for some time, when such topics/debates arise that would cool off the members momentary temper.I being a member of many such groups, think that this feature would be a great value add and to my knowledge none other messaging apps had this feature. I know that the chances of someone notices this review and read it completely are very thin, but still hope that this gets addressed.But this is a great app!Kudos to the Telegram Team! ~ Vikas
