### "Telegram - A Review From a Computer & Telecommunications Engineer"

December 15, 2021

5.0

The ability to communicate securely with clients, friends & family. If clients already have confidence in the skillset(s) that I bring to the table, then Telegram is the cherry on top/icing on the cake. It's an awesome product that is continuing to evolve & improve, and in this cutthroat world that we live in using Telegram makes life so much less burdensome.

Pros

I love the security that Telegram has by default. End-to-End data encryption. As a freelance Computer (Hardware/Software/Network) & Telecommunications Engineer the clients that I deal with need to feel confident that what we are discussing is safe & their IP is protected. The other feature I love is just ease of use. I'm the first to admit that ease of use wasn't Telegram's strongest early on but they are receptive to feedback & have made enourmous strides as of late.

Cons

Crazy alerts/notifications drive me to drink regardless of the platform. Telegram have taken feedback on board & it is tremendously improved & as I understand it they seek to improve it further.

### "Una app de mensajeria impecable."

November 18, 2022

5.0

Una aplicación muy completa de mensajería, te va a permitir tener una interacción de muy alta calidad con muchas personas y grupos en general.También posee la opción de enviar archivos de distintos tipos y de un peso mas que aceptable,Con una interfaz excelente y con posibilidad de configurar muchos parámetros para que tu experiencia sea la mejor

Pros

La interfaz que posee, es la mejor que haya visto en mucho tiempo, la posibilidad de cambiar entre el modo oscuro y el modo claro, le da un toque muy bueno.Tus chats siempre lucirán muy estéticos y con posibilidad de personalizar cada chat a tu gusto.

Cons

Tal vez lo que menos me "gusta" es que no todos tus conocidos utilizan la app, ya que hay otras opciones que tienen mucha más comunidad, por lo que tendrás que tener suerte o recomendar la aplicación a tus amigos para que la utilicen.

### "Telegram is nice,quick and efficient. But not very popular as others."

September 26, 2021

5.0

Main problem solved via Telegram is the quality-size issue. It's known that some other chat or file-sending apps reduce the quality of photos, images, video, etc. you send. And also, a BIG problem there is that you're limited to sending files that can't be even over 20mb. That's why I started using Telegram, for being able to send good quality and heavy files to my partners or even my boss at my job. I started exploring the possibilities, and discovered how to find communities, how to contact with others without sharing my phone number, and many other options available here that I was not used to in other apps. Unfortunately, not many people in my circle are into Telegram, so that's why even tho I like it, I don't use it a lot, however, any time I need to quickly send a file or talk with users around the world about some topic, I consider this app as a nice option.

Pros

Best things about Telegram: -No quality reduction issues compared with other chat apps. - No need to share your phone number or have other's for being able to find/be found. - Easy to find group chats and communities even without invitations (most of the time) - Fast charging and downloading files. - Capacity for sharing heavy files (GBs)

Cons

Not so good aspects about Telegram: - It can ocuppy a lot of space if you don't turn off the auto-download/save files and you're into communities and group chats. (I literally had THOUSANDS of images and videos on my phone "secretly" saved, which was the reason to have many GBs being occupied) -Unfortunately, Telegram is not the main chat app for many people, not even considered. So you may have trouble trying to use this software for having better quality communication with your friends or coworkers, to say the least.

### "Mi app de mensajería instantánea favorita"

November 11, 2022

5.0

Telegram es genial para la comunicación, mediante su función de mensaje de voz todo se hace más fácil para transmitir un mensaje claro. Adjuntar archivos es muy importante a la hora de trabajar con un equipo.

Pros

Lo que más me llamó la atención y encontré muy útil de Telegram es que este tenía un chat para guardar mensajes u otra información que uno quiera, de esta manera no es necesario crear un chat o “grupo con solo 1 integrante” para guardar mensajes, fotos, links, etc. También Me gustó mucho la primera vez que lo ocupé la incorporación de packs de stickers con movimiento, muy distintos a los que había visto.

Cons

Sinceramente la aplicación es buena con lo que tiene. Se podrían agregar más cosas pero estas serían prescindibles y es posible que entorpezcan la facilidad de la aplicación.

### "Telegram: Best Messaging App Ever"

October 16, 2021

5.0

My overall experience with Telegram has being heady and beautiful. I use it for cryptocurrency and it has made me quite some money

Pros

The key features of the App are: 1)It is cloud based which ensures that all data is encrypted and immediately saved. It does not require time-to-time backup unlike WhatsApp. 2)Security is sound on Telegram. It's got end-to-end encryption and many other features which include self-destruct. 3)The User Interface is very cool with great animations.

Cons

Probably the only issue I have with Telegram is the effortless capability to be spammed and being added to groups without your permission.

### "One of the best messaging apps"

November 20, 2021

5.0

In general I feel comfortable using this application, I feel more secure knowing that my data is more private than other apps. What I liked the most is that I can use the same account on my laptop, on my phone, on my tablet without any dependency. I highly recommend it, and hope to see Stories in an update soon.

Pros

Telegram has everything a user wants, multimedia files do not invade the gallery, it has unique functions such as bots, it allows you to customize the application to your liking with different colors, themes, images. It is multi-device, it does not depend on the phone. Telegram respect your privacy, which is the most important thing. Unlike other applications, Telegram allows you to anchor more chats, it allows you to add users without having their phone number, you can include up to 1000 viewers in video calls. Telegram channels bring a good administration, in which you can do many things, they do not have a limited number of members. I love the animations that the stickers, the emojis have. This application allows you to send multimedia files without affecting the quality, regardless of the length of the videos. In my 2 years that I have been using it, I can say that it is much better than other similar messaging apps.

Cons

As everything has its against. Telegram despite being an application that improves with each update. It lacks some details that other similar applications have, such as Stories. As a user I have heard mention that they do not use Telegram because it does not allow to publish stories, if it had this function they would use Telegram as their preferred messaging application. I would like the call and video call buttons to be together to make it easier or more intuitive for some users.

Reason for choosing Telegram

I chose it for the multiplatform theme, WhatsApp depends on the phone. Telegram no, and this gives it all the advantage and is a reason why I switched.

### "Telegram = Texts That Transcend Encryption for Total Privacy"

January 30, 2020

5.0

Want privacy? Telegram. Want total security in the messages you send and or receive? Telegram. Wanna keep up with the Joneses and keep your privacy in check, no matter what technological advances may come? Telegram. In the span of seconds, upon pressing "Get" on the app in the app store, Telegram downloads as a cute little robin blue box, allows you to sign in and sign up that first time, through either a preexisting app already in use like Facebook, or through an entirely new clean email sign up, and from there, just get your people to follow suit, and then all parties are covered and can customize their privacy features in the app itself, like that self-destructing option where messages, upon arrival or after being sent, are POOF! Gone. After a few seconds or minutes or hours or days, up to you.

Pros

Ever feel a pang of fear or the ever pressing weight of wariness as your finger hovers over that send button in your text messages? Not necessarily for any criminal-like related entity, not at all, but just for your, and your recipient's, general privacy and possible lack there of? Ever desire the impenetrable promise of total privacy, for your info, thoughts, feelings, MESSAGES? Wake up ya goose, Telegram may sound old-fashioned and outdated, but is is anything but! In fact, Telegram has the most up to date and highest level of encryption that keeps up with the latest technological advances that threaten to undermine people's privacy and ensures it. It ACTUALLY does what it promises, and I will not tell you how I know that, but I do in the strictest most impervious sense, it enables a complete layer of security that cannot be breached or broken, and frankly, Telegram and its competitor Signal are the ONLY to do so, at least to my awareness. Either of these apps legitimately give you 100% privacy in the messages you send & receive. You can even enable further privacy features to bolster your sense of protection, such as enabling your messages to self-destruct after a certain amount of time, say five minutes or a week, to be forever gone, lost in the ether, never to be found again, FOR REAL. Yes, it's undoubtedly the mafia's go to as well, but hey, don't hate the player, hate the game. Telegram can envelope you in total security (see what I did there).

Cons

The only con for Telegram, and by proxy Signal, is that your respective recipient(s) must have the app installed on their phone as well, and must be signed in/have an account, which you can do instantly by signing in with a modality of options, ie Facebook, etc, and you only have to do it that first time, so it's pretty effortless, in order for the both of you to enjoy that total promise of privacy. Well worth the five seconds of downloading it and signing in and up though and well worth the time it takes to let others know what you now know. Telegram or BUST.

Pros

Telegram has been my first social platform as it is for study, work and chatting as it's easy to use, save documents and folders and share your content.

Cons

Some features missing as it doesn't reminds memories like Facebook, Sometimes the downloads take much time and it doesn't have group video call so these things are annoying for me.

A wonderful and interesting experience. I got to know many funny people and loved them all

Pros

You can create your own channels and program it as you want and add artificial intelligence in it and I was isolated, but now I have become social and I have many friends

Cons

The thing that I did not like about it is when you are subscribed to a Telegram channel that has artificial intelligence and you chat with it and you want to copy the texts, you are not allowed to do that

### "rrview for Telegram"

January 11, 2022

5.0

Telegram is my favorite app because of the numerous features and functions it offers, and I recommend it to everyone since it is well worth downloading and installing, and it is the primary chat software on your phone.

Pros

security You can send a variety of file kinds, including very huge files of up to 1 GB. It gives you limitless storage space and stores all of your data on the cloud. Available on all major operating systems, including Android, iPhone, and Windows. It has a hidden conversation view option that employs encryption. Messages can be deleted automatically if desired. It is completely free. There are no advertisements on it."

Cons

The Telegram software drains the phone's battery quickly, but the firm pledges to solve the issue in the future. It only works if the phone's internet or WiFi connection is very good. One of Telegram's drawbacks is that it does not allow users to exchange huge or heavy files. Some countries, such as the Sultanate of Oman, have a Telegram ban, which is termed a Telegram problem in Oman, and to address the problem of Telegram ban, you must use VPN programs. It is not possible to delete an account directly, however it will be deleted automatically if the user does not use the app for a month or more.

Some of the things I Love and enjoy about using Telegram is; 1. It has the best group chat features With easy navigations and a wider range of reach out 2. It is Free to Use 3. The application is very user friendly 4. A very strong and helpful support team

Cons

### "Best Broadcast or Customer Engagement Application with File Sharing and Video"

January 10, 2022

5.0

Overall the benefits have been tremendous - better engagement with clients and updates. Great user experience on the customer's end and easy to access the group and share it, easy to access and download files.

Pros

I love how easy it is to create either a group chat or a broadcast chat to share push updates of all kinds with customers or otherwise - audio, video, or text. It is also very easy and fast to share files and create video conferencing. It is a lightweight app with no bloat or any complaints.

Cons

A better chat management and folder management system would be great and easier to find options for muting chats or not being able to let others add you to chats. There is a folder system but it does not feel well organized if you have 50 chats you are in.

### "The most popular social media application through which messages can be sent"

July 19, 2022

5.0

A very wonderful application, easy to use, and has very many features that make it distinct from the rest of the social networking applications, and it is also characterized by complete security, as it can be strongly encrypted, making it one of the most secure programs.

Pros

Recently, the Telegram app has gone viral, and the reason for this is that there are constant updates and powerful features that we are fascinated with. One of the strongest features that I like is the ability to hide the phone number and hide the last seen Also, the ability to translate messages within the app is one of the latest features of Telegram, which allows users to translate messages to and from any language without having to rely on an external translation app. Another feature I haven't seen in other apps is the ability to edit or replace photos after sending. If you send a wrong picture or without writing the text you want, you can easily edit it or replace it with another picture, in addition, you can activate the automatic deletion of messages and conversations after 24, 7 hours, days or months depending on what you want. Choose. Also, if you are the type who likes privacy and confidentiality, you can encrypt the message so that only you and the other party can read it. A very popular hidden feature for channel and group owners is the ability to protect content, so that channel and group owners who share exclusive content can prevent followers from saving their photos or video, taking a screenshot, or forwarding messages

Cons

One of the strongest flaws that I encountered is that the application consumes the phone battery very much, also there is no possibility to download multiple files at once.

### "Telegram the instant messaging app that connects the world."

September 12, 2021

5.0

I use Telegram especially in my work because we are really concerned about the privacy policies of other apps. I had no trouble while using the app and, I found nice features like groups and forums.

Pros

It is inevitable not to talk about the privacy policy issues of similar apps. Users around the world are really concerned about it and Telegram solves this problem in a simple way by protecting our data from third parties effectively. However, Telegram is not only about privacy but also about innovation while connecting people around the world through groups, forums, and discussions.

Cons

I think the interface of the app could be improved while using fancy typography or letting their users to change the colors of the app.

July 25, 2021

4.0

I loved the Telegram application and I use it on daily basis. It helps in getting all the latest information with relevant links. I can join public groups and can learn so much of it.

Pros

1\. Its open source application lets you search anything in the public groups globally. You can find all the relevant information with relevant links or files which you can download them directly. 2. The video and audio conferencing quality is tremendous even on low range internet.

Cons

Sometimes there might be privacy concerns as you can download anything whatever the keyword you search. So that filter related to content should be there to restrict users below 18 years.

### "Best Social Media Application"

July 26, 2021

5.0

Overall best social media application ever. Have groups, channels, can send and store files without taking larger storage space, and do every other thing a social media app can. video/ audio calls, instant messaging with great search function. and ability to manage groups with bots easily. And unlike some other applications, our personal data is much safer and won't be used for marketing with Telegram.

Pros

I like that being able to use multiple accounts. And being able to access Telegram from both PC and mobile phone. Also unlike many other apps, telegram does not share our personal data to other platforms. The ease of use, many customizable settings, being lightweight app and both group and channel functions and specially the use of bots have stolen me from all other social media apps. Ability to share files easily is a very good improvement compared to every other app in the field.

Cons

Compared with every other app in the same category, I'm quite happy with telegram but I would be more happier if telegram would be able to introduce the two way security function and increase the time period of removing inactive users.

### "Telegram - The best instant messaging application"

October 31, 2019

5.0

When discussing about the overall experience of using Telegram, telegram is a great application for instant messaging. Many features are included in it for our satisfaction. We can get many advantages from that features. Only few annoying things in Telegram and those are not such big issues to throw away the application. Telegram is being popular with people and after some time this application will be like WhatsApp that an application everyone use. Video calling feature also will introduce soon. After these things happen, Telegram will be the best instant messaging application.

Pros

Telegram is one of a best instant messaging application I have ever used. Telegram has many interesting features that can attract users to use that application instead of other instant messaging applications. The first thing is, Telegram is a free application. No cost for everything in it, no subscriptions and no advertisements popping up. No matter you have android, apple, windows or desktop, this application can be used in any device. Telegram is a cloud based application. Therefore we can access our account at any time. Though it is cloud-based, privacy is at a higher level. All chats are encrypting by them. One cool feature that I found is that we can send any number of photos, any large media file through this application. From other applications we cannot do this thing. Telegram has another feature called self-destructing chats. We can start a self-destructing chat by setting timer and it deletes out chat automatically when the timer runs out. When we are in group chat, our phone number is not visible to others if do not save our numbers. This is also a good privacy option.

Cons

Telegram does not have any serious disadvantages in my opinion. I am using this application for a long time but I did not find any bad thing. Only few annoying things can be found. One is the popularity of the application. This application is not spread widely yet. In that case we have to face problems because everyone does not use Telegram like other instant messaging applications. Amount of stickers, emojies in the store is lower when comparing with other applications. Video calling is not introduced yet. A small quality drop occurs when sending photos and videos through the application, but not much as other applications.

August 6, 2021

4.0

My overall experience is good and I recommend others to use Telegram.

Pros

The best feature about this app is that files can be shared much easily than other apps. Another good thing about this app is that telegram groups can have unlimited members and voice conference can be done among many members without any issue. The app interface is too good and chat feature is one of the best.

Cons

One thing I disliked about this app is its search feature. If we need to find a group or a channel then we have to type the exact words else it won't show up. Only exact searches show up in telegram search. Secondly while downloading a file we are not sure how much percentage it has downloaded and create issues if we pause and then download again.

### "Valuable Connections and Happy Coincidences"

August 29, 2020

5.0

Well, it is quite an inspiring tool but I don't recommend you to go to Telegram if you are in a bad mood.

Pros

Well, there are a great number of reviews about Telegram and other messengers. However, the precious function of this messenger is not about just connecting with your friends, acquaintances, schoolmates, pen pals and colleagues. It is more about the opportunity to be connected with the whole world: in Telegram chats you can meet people who will change your life for the better (or worse), who will challenge you, motivate you, encourage you, provoke your curiosity! You can meet your future business partner or boss in a Telegram chat, you can meet your future boyfriend or girlfriend, you can your future client or fundraiser. The opportunity to find any chats you want, hide or open your identity, choose any channel you like and leave any chat rooms and channels as easy as ABC in this messenger. You can create your own channel, group or super group, choose the administrators and moderators for any of your spaces, close them and protect them which has never been so easy. However, it is a little bit complicated to promote your own channel and get new subscribers because in Telegram users come and go as fast as one's legs can carry one. Usually, when users subscribe to too many channels, groups and super groups, they quickly become swamped with the messages that's why they leave as quickly as they come. That's why channels promotion in Telegram is not an easy task, especially if you are not a super-duper marketer.

Cons

If you don't know how to react to spam and trolling attacks, this messenger may discourage you. Besides, the speed of being flooded with messages in Telegram is especially high. This makes channels promotion a challenging task because users come and go as fast as a hare.

WhatsApp is shamefully wasting your Android memory. You always have to keep your smartphone turned on in order the app to be working. What's more, for some weird reason the number of troublemakers in WhatsApp is enormously high as if all the mood hoovers in the world have decided to use this app. I have never met so many meddlers anywhere as among people who have been using this app.

### "Telegram Review"

December 9, 2021

4.0

My overall experience with Telegram has been great. I use it on a daily basis and it has helped me a lot. People can now also use it for business.

Pros

Security is what I like the most in Telegram. It was created to protect the privacy of users, unlike Whatsapp where our data is readily hackable. It is simple to use but at the same time very difficult to decrypt.

Cons

I do not like the alerts and notifications which goes off every single minute. But there is the option to turn it off though.

Because of the security.

### "A great file sharing messenger which needs to adapt organization specific features"

September 17, 2021

4.0

I use it for my office communication. I have a bitter sweet experience with it. If I have to change messenger I will miss file sharing feature nothing else. Other features need polishing.

Pros

File sharing is a breeze in Telegram. File management is also better than the most. Deploying chatbots are very easy as well. If these are your priority then this is your perfect messenger. Recently they introduced screen sharing feature which is a move towards the right direction if they want to attract more attention from organizational users

Cons

Notification are intrusive and there is no quiet mode. So it is very annoying. Call drops a lot. Last but not the list they should introduce either like or seen by feature to avoid clutter.

I personally favor productivity apps like Microsoft Planner because communications are more relevant and specific. But it is the preferred mode of communication in my organization. So I am stuck with whatever they choose for communication. My personal favorite is Viber if I have to choose.
