Description

Pure instant messaging — simple, fast, secure, and synced across all your devices. One of the world's top 10 most downloaded apps with over 800 million 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.

Werkt goed, maar....

Werkt prima, maar zou fijn zijn als deze ook gekoppeld kan worden aan de Apple Watch.

Best messaging app

Best messaging app there is. I tried different messaging apps (Line, WhatsApp, WeChat, Facebook Messenger) and Telegram has the most functionalities which are also useful.
It works on different devices at the same time, so sending messages from your PC is faster than on your phone and you can share easily data between your PC and phone. This means that it doesn’t depend on an active internet connection from your phone and your data isn’t used for ads (the only data stored is what Telegram needs to function as a secure and feature-rich messaging service).
Only a username is required, but you can also add your phone number if you want and people can add you by your username if you don’t want them to know your phone number.
It is also great that you can send uncompressed video’s/pictures and huge files up to 1,5GB.
One of the best features is being able to edit your messages easily and being able to delete a message without showing it has been deleted.
There is also a personal cloud, which can be used to send messages or files for you to check later. The best thing is that you can send yourself a reminder on a specific date and time. It’s also possible to send messages to people on a specific time and date (like a reminder if someone needs to do something, but tends to forget that).
You can make your own stickers and those stickers are attached to emoticons (which are set by the creator of those sticker). GIFs are easy to find and use (saves the 100 most recent used GIFs).
I still don’t understand why people keep being clingy on Whatsapp (except the reason of: people I know use Whatsapp)... Especially after those leaks and other security issues (aside it being owned by Facebook).
- Whatsapp, like I described above, you can’t send uncompressed pictures/video’s, not being able to use it on different devices and can’t edit send messages. The delete option is horrible, since people can see that you deleted a message.
- Facebook Messenger is worse in terms of functionality than Whatsapp and didn’t use encryption for a long time.
- Line is basically used in Japan, but they earn money by selling stickers to the users. It’s private (in comparison with Whatsapp), but has less nice functionalities compared to Telegram.
- WeChat.... it’s Chinese so there won’t be any privacy at all.

Hopefully more people will use Telegram, since it’s much better and secure than Whatsapp (considering this is the most used messaging app in my country).

@Developers: A nice improvement would be to send uncompressed pictures as an album as well, so it doesn’t take a lot of space.
