Olekumaster: Telegram is like SMS and email combined -fast,
versatile and powerful. You can send messages, photos, videos and files of any type (doc, zip, mp3, etc) to people who are in your phone contacts and have Telegram. You can also create groups for up to 200 people. With Telegram you can do all of this on any number of your devices, both mobile and desktop.
It has over 4 million users which have been in the
running with Whatsapp Messenger. Whatsapp took a chance and defeat the 2Go Messenger in the media world.
In the next few years, I won't predict what will happen between Whatsapp and Telegram messenger.
Here are Some Comparative features of the Telegram Messenger
1. It's Free forever, compared to the Whatsapp Messenger that give a year trial.
2. It allows unlimited chat upload while Whatsapp Messenger allowed 16MB chat upload limit.
3. You messages can be accessed with multiple device on Telegram Messenger.
4. No ads, No subscription fee and Free as I stated above.
5. It's available for all platform, which also includes your old Java phones, i.e Nokia Xpress music, Nokia C1 and others
6. You also have the chance to select themes as well as backgrounds when chatting. And you get the chance to use your own username as well as display picture.
It works with even the weakest mobile connection, it is very fast, even with your 2G network. And your messages are compressed to the best minimum byte possible. So if you ask me Telegram is the best messaging app like Whatsapp I have ever come across and it is being recommended for anyone.
One thing I know, it won't see the light of the day here in Nigeria. Whatsapp and BBM are already in driving seat. Viber came with all its bells and whistles...but today am sure it has gone home. Telegram_ good app but sorry you came late to the party.

Likening the way whatsapp overthrew 2go to a possibility of Telegram overthrowing whatsapp is kinda funny cos 2go was and is still miles behind whatsapp so it was very easy to dump 2go when better thing came. What else are we to see on Telegram that whatsapp couldn't bring? Abeg telegram can only try.

Olekumaster: so must it be on nokia store before nokia users can use it?
Such an overhyped app is supposed to be on Nokia Store.
Why don't you say The app shouldn't be on Google Play?

Sometimes it is frustrating when you can't continue your conversations when you switch from mobile to desktop. Telegram does that.
You can actually send a self destruct timer message to someone
More people can be added to a group
More secure chat
Can send bigger files.
Last word : unless Whatsapp sits up, there is a possibility of an overthrow. Whatsapp should at least have a desktop app or a Web client

flinton: This review left out what made Telegram unique... The ability to auto delete posts depending on the user's discretion and leave no trace of the posts, It's called 'secret chat' on Telegram. A great tool for discussing confidential matters and also a cheaters app, u will never get caught!
I don't get it. You can also delete messages on Whatsapp. What's the big deal with "auto delete"?

The only thing that interests me right now is the touted speed. If it's really that fast, it's worth trying.

What it means is that you can actually set a timer to self destroy the message you sent to another person after some secs. It deletes both in your phone and the other person's phone.
Remember for Telegram all messages are in the cloud, so that you can continue from wherever you stop on any device while for WhatsApp, your conversations reside in your phone, on a new device you start afresh

The other party could just save a screenshot of the chat window.

Some forget to delete their msgs on whatsapp and hv landed in hot soup, Telegram takes care of such inadequacies, imagine how many times u sleep off while chatting on whatsapp and someone reads ur msg, Telegram's encryption is second to none

Okay, but if one is smart enough, one can take the message screenshot before it auto delete.

Due to minimal support for jar applications, many vendors do not bother to create or support them but Telegram has decided to release the source code for developers to create a working Java apps, many variants are on the net.
Later, the best working would be promoted by Telegram.

Ok, I think I have seen one thing where this telegram beats whatsapp, - it can send files (not just images,videos and audios).

Will stick with the ones I have already. Too much social network to hang makes you way less productive. Increase your productivity read books, read news, spend time with family and friends "in the real world", think smartly in all you do.


See how blackberry wants to overthrow Apple and iPhone. And where blackberry beats android smartphones and iPhone hands down.

I'll recommend Telegram to guys that are using Nokia X. It's about 9MB size in Nokia Store. Currently WhatsApp/WhatsApp plus has stopped working on Nokia X.
Re: The Telegram Messenger Is Better Than Whatsapp by busuyi44: 12:38pm On Aug 04, 2014
I downloaded Telegram to my blackberry Q10 recently. The app doesn't alert me when I get new message except until I open the app manually. Also not highlighted in blackberry hub. Developers should produce native Telegram app for BlackBerry 10.
