Telegram

About

Telegram is a cloud-based, cross-platform messaging service launched in 2013 by Pavel and Nikolai Durov. It offers a range of features, including secure messaging, voice and video calls, file sharing, and support for large groups and channels. Telegram is known for its focus on privacy and security, with end-to-end encryption available in its Secret Chats feature. This ensures that messages are only accessible to the sender and recipient, and they are not stored on Telegram's servers. Additionally, users can set messages to self-destruct after a specified time for enhanced privacy. Telegram supports group chats with up to 200,000 members and public channels for broadcasting to unlimited audiences. It is available on multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux, allowing users to access their messages across different devices. Telegram also offers customization options, such as themes and stickers, and supports the creation of bots for automating tasks and integrating third-party services. With its robust features and emphasis on security, Telegram has become a popular choice for both personal and business communications worldwide.
