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.
Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
What is not understood is that contacts who have been deleted many years ago ,before even the App was created,appear in the personal contact list and they are allowed to see our status and we need to go on blocking every old deleted contact. How do you obtain our contacts deleted 9 years ago before even creating the App? Why do you obtain numbers that have been changed even by their owners and show them up on our contact list ? This is a serious Breach of privacy by you and by the third party that is storing deleted data and provide you with it.
Good, but some features missing
Lewi.1985
The app is general is good and fast, has tons of features that other competitors don’t have.But some important features are missing, like:-We can’t know who read a specific message in group chat, there is no indicator of who in the group has read the message. -Facebook public posts won’t show a preview when posted in telegram chat, it shows as just a link without any preview -when someone in a group chat sends a long text paragraph, it takes pages of the group .. it would be great to show like 4-5 lines only with the option to (read full text) to show the rest of the other 20 lines or so ... rather than occupying the whole group chat.I hope you keep enhancing this app
Buggy
arcane_apple
Why is the app still a buggy mess? Still the notification badge doesn't disappear after the messages have been read. Many connection issues still remain even when the rest of the internet and video calling is perfectly fine.
