Telegram

Telegram is one of the few messaging platforms that boasted end-to-end encryption before the big names like WhatsApp and Viber jumped on the bandwagon. Telegram has always been touted as the 'secure' messaging option and it lives up to its name. It also provides a great deal of useful integration features via its bot and channel APIs. Telegram has always been blazing fast, and has never lagged except during outages caused by malicious activity.

The theming community on Telegram has dropped off lately, with people having to create their own custom themes for Telegram. The secure nature of Telegram also tends to attract groups that aren't the best in terms of legal activity.

Creating communities and platforms is easy and straightforward, and there are no limitations on the posts, images, or videos that can be shared. Telegram does not impose any size restrictions on the files that are sent, which is very handy. Another significant advantage is its reception potential when forming public or private groups. You can add how many people you want. Also, Telegram has a high form of protection that accesses any message received from the app, which is a significant criterion for us to be able to use it as a business contact tool. The app has nice and exclusive animated stickers, as well as the ability to create more without having to use a third-party app. This makes a conversation feel more lively and enjoyable. The final statement I'd like to make is that Telegram is completely secure. There are no secret fees.

I will write a few dislikes that I want to change even though it has good features. Sometimes it is taking so much time to reach many other users when sending any file, video, or photo. There is a function that allows you to make changes to a text that has already been submitted and received. Allowing these changes may be disastrous for a critical discussion. Despite the fact that the Telegram app is famous and is used by thousands of people all over the world, you could use it as your phone's key and primary feature. It does not allow you to submit several files. One of the best features of the telegram is that it helps you to transfer big and heavy files; however, it does not permit you to pick and send several files at once; instead, each file must be chosen and sent simultaneously.

All my cryptocurrency members and family are using this app which is the main reason I started using it in the first place. It has good marketplace features. It has great privacy options and the ability to call users. I like creating groups and managing them within this app. Bots can help the business a lot and sometimes I do find legit vendors that are great to work with.

There are many things this software needs to do to improve itself.

First, navigation is HORRIBLE!! It's so impossibly difficult to navigate through all the groups and personal chats to find relevant chats. Some of which were buried for weeks and I didn't even realize it. How about some sort of organizing feature? This alone NEEDS TO HAPPEN or I will look elsewhere for a better chatting software.

Second, there are sooooo many scams and fake accounts on this app that I seriously wonder how many people have lost money here or had their lives wrecked. I for one have already lost thousands of dollars in scams that I thought would be legit vendors. Turns out, they just shut down their account and start a new one...

Tried to contact support about this but... where is support? Shouldn't it be easy to get support help on this software, especially after they tried to raise $1B+ for cryptocurrency token? Comon... this should be the FIRST thing in any business.

Users, how can we determine who is fake and who isn't? Some of my groups have sooo many spam/scammers posting shill's that I literally had to hire someone to create a bot to ban the spammers for me.

And managing my own groups, I can only see so far down the list of who is in the group? Why can't I see everybody?? I want to contact each group member and it only shows a fraction of them.

It's not visually appealing or easy to navigate. It feels like a software built in the early 2000's to be honest.

Telegram has a good security to encrypt every message sent out from this application and it is quite important criteria for us to able to use it as one of our communication platform to conduct our business. It has no limitation on file and video size that can be sent using this software.

The account created in Telegram is always paired with phone number, it will became a problem when i am loosing ownership of my phone number and it will be impossible to get back my account without the original phone number. An option to paired it to the email account should help fixing this problem.

Creating groups and channels is very simple and practical, there are no restrictions on the content of content, photos, and videos. Cloud space is unlimited and there are no restrictions on file storage. It is possible to send long videos, photos, and images in original size as well as large files. The possibility of creating an ID is very good and I can share my telegram ID with others instead of my phone number. I like voice and video calls as well as the possibility of voice messaging. In general, everything is good on Telegram.

All you have to do is register with your phone number, as it would have been much better if you could have registered with LinkedIn, Email, Facebook and Gmail. Also, the ability to separate and categorize groups, channels, and users in different tabs should be added so that they do not all overlap. If you do not use the account in a period of time , everything will be deleted, which must be notified via email before deleting the account and the channel.
