## Reviews

### "Telegram is too underrated and unappreciated." — 5.0/5

> **Adarsh** | *30 November 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Telegram has the most privacy in any social media platform in the market now that provide similar service. The mandatory requirement of a phone number similar to WhatsApp limits fake accounts to an extend. It can be accessed from multiple devices at he same time making it very flexible and handy.
> 
> **Cons**: The search option seems to be a bit inefficient, the key words does not always fetch desirable results, even when we type in a word to search in our conversations, it always shows something totally unrelated. That aspect I think would be better to take reference from WhatsApp or even Instagram.
> 
> Most versatile app to use across devices for data sharing and communication. I have been using it  for my work for more than 2 years and it rarely disappointed.&#10;In certain occasions it fails to send multiple files if its not selected from within the app, like when we select multiple files from our device and choose telegram to share it.

### "most efficient software for people and also scammers" — 4.0/5

> **Aslam** | *14 February 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: You can learn a lot of good things through this. There are many opportunities for business, new products, unknown things, jobs. Meeting with entrepreneurs living in new and foreign countries.. You can easily wear out newly manufactured products.
> 
> **Cons**: Many people are being cheated because of this Software. I am one of them, they are cheating me by pretending to be able to work from home. You can register a new movie, computer game, or software without buying it.
> 
> very great software... easily we can access because of bot its very helpful , thats a very big cons to normal peoples ...because scammers easily access telegram ....

### "My telegram experience" — 4.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: You can easily and instantly communicate with friends and groups on it. Messages are delivered quickly, and it also offers voice and video calling.
> 
> **Cons**: Telegram sometimes takes up a lot of storage, and sharing large files can be tricky. I find it a bit complicated at times.
> 
> My experience with Telegram has been okay. I can easily chat with friends and groups, messages are delivered instantly, and the voice and video calling features are good. Sometimes, there are issues with storage or media sharing. It feels similar to WhatsApp, and since I don’t use it much, it’s alright for me.

>

End-to-End Encryption Not Default&#10;Only "Secret Chats" are end-to-end encrypted,&#10;2.For new or casual users, the app can feel cluttered due to the wide range of features like bots, channels, folders, and customization options.&#10;3.Telegram has a smaller network effect in some countries, meaning fewer friends or family use it compared to WhatsApp or iMessage.&#10;4.Public groups and channels can be exploited for spam, scams, or inappropriate content due to the platform's openness.
