My favorite features of telegram.


1. ABILITY TO LOGOUT. How many times do you wish not to be disturbed by messages from people online? Normally, with whatsapp, you have to switch off your data entirely which affects all your apps. Or if you are tech savvy, you either go to settings, applications, then force stop it. Or, if you are even more tech savvy, you root and install a firewall and use that to block the app. But with telegram, you can ALWAYS logout whenever you want to with little or no stress to you, and when you log back in, all the chats you missed while offline will be downloaded to your device.

MULTI PLATFORM AVAILABILITY Now you don't have to wait to get to your phone before you can chat anymore. The app is not only available on Android, IOS, and Windows Phone but it also have native apps for PC running Windows, Linux and Mac OS. But the fun doesn't end there. It also has a full featured web app that can be accessed thru any web browser. So, you can always keep chatting no matter where you find yourself.

CLOUD STORED CHATS Remember those times when you format your phone, or sdcard, or you lose your phone and you realize that you have lost all those lovely chats you had with your bae? Well, say goodbye to that. Your chats are now stored online and whenever you get a new phone or for any reason lose your chats, they are all restored whenever you login from anywhere. What does that mean, it means you can chat with someone on your phone until ur battery goes down, and you then continue the chat on your pc right where you stopped with no confusion because all your chats follow you wherever you go better than MTN does.

CHAT ON MULTIPLE DEVICES AT ONCE Due to the above point, you can chat on multiple devices at once unlike whatsapp that logs you off once it detects that you have logged on to a different device. As you are chatting on one device, all the chats are being replicated on the other device you logged into. This is especially good for those with multiple devices, so as you are chatting on your phone, it will be replicating on your tablet/PC that you are logged into.

SECURITY This is far more secure than whatsapp and has end to end encryption for your chats, lets you know when anyone logs into your account from anywhere and gives you the option to log the device out remotely, uses 2 step authentication for EACH and EVERYTIME you log in unlike whatsapp that requires that only once per device.

SECRET CHATS Someone already mentioned this but I will also throw more light. Imagine wanting to chat with that girl you met but you don't want your gf to see it on ur phone or you trying to hit on your friend's girl without him knowing, or you want to send some nudes without others seeing or saving it. Now you can with secret chats. Secret chats don't get to be saved in the cloud, so once the chat is gone, it is gone. It can deleted from both sides by any party. That is, once you are thru, you can delete the chats from your end and it gets deleted on the other end as well. You can send timed messages and files (Yeah, they had this feature way before BBM picked it up and is now selling it). Once you send a timed message, it displays for a given amount of time then gets deleted on both ends.


I bet there are lot more crazy features on telegram but these are my favorites.
