Telegram as a Messenger: Key Features of Telegram
Chats and Groups
- Support for groups with up to 200,000 members.
- Ability to create supergroups with extended settings.
- Real-time voice and video chats.
Folders and Sorting
Telegram allows users to create folders for organizing chats efficiently. For example, users can separate work and personal conversations.
To create a folder for unread messages:
Go to "Settings" → "Folders" → "Create New Folder", and add the "Unread" filter. This automatically collects all messages that have not yet been read.
For a folder with personal chats, use the "Personal Chats" filter and manually add necessary contacts while excluding group chats and channels. This is useful for quickly switching between work and personal conversations.
Personal Chats
Personal conversations in Telegram come with multiple useful features that enhance convenience and security. Users can pin important messages and chats to keep them at the top. Secret chats offer end-to-end encryption and do not get stored in the cloud. Messages can be set to self-destruct after a specified time. Auto-delete of entire chat history can be configured for privacy-sensitive conversations. Support for animated and interactive stickers, reactions, and voice messages makes communication more engaging.
Bots and Automation
Telegram provides a variety of bots that help automate tasks, set reminders, download files, and even manage businesses.
