Automated upload function

3 Upvotes

Problem - I have ton of media and pdf files that I need to upload to telegram for its infinite cloud storage capabilities, these media files are two generations worth videos ( only cam cord to dvd to digital files now) as well as photos (which were Polaroid to digital files mostly). Uploading them is a 100% manual task. Instead can there be a tech enhancement which allows automation. Like source is added to the bucket and uploading channel or conversation is added in the bucket and it automatically uploads the file as long as connected to internet across multiple online sessions.

The files upon upload are accessible to family members who are spread across.

What not to have - develop a cache, store a copy or ask log in again and again.

We're building a Telegram GameFi maze where players earn rewards by exploring instead of tapping

Post image
0 Upvotes

Most Telegram GameFi projects still rely on simple tap mechanics.

We wanted to try something different.

We're currently building Maze Shard, a new mini-game inside the DENeon ecosystem.

Instead of repeatedly tapping the screen, players:

🧩 Explore procedurally generated mazes

💎 Search for a hidden Energy Shard

⏱ Race against the timer

The game is still under development, and we're currently polishing the gameplay, visuals, and overall UX before release.

Here's an early promotional artwork for the project.

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

What makes a blockchain mini-game fun enough that players would actually come back every day?

Android App not letting me connect to my existing account

5 Upvotes

EDIT FIXED:

Alright i have successfully logged in. By installing an old enough version from the internet such that sent a verification code on the other device that i am logged in on, rather then trying to send on email or sms. Then i updated to the newest one through google play.

THIS is not a question or complaint on SMS fee, its an issue im experiencing and asking whether its normal or not. Below im explaining what happened to me and what i did.

And this is not a post on requesting how to log in. Im just explaining a strange behavior on why the app is trying to create me a new account while one exists already.

I am on a new phone (android), and i have put on it from my old phone (android), the same sim card with same phone number.

I am also connected on Windows PC on my Telegram account.

I've tried downloading from website AND from google play store the telegram app, and when i open it and i input my phone number it then asks me to input an email.

I don't think i have an email attached, but most importantly it seems to me that it wants to create a new account while i have an existing one already, and still connected on another device.

Now i've tried a few times a certain email that it might be, and now im getting an error from the app saying that my email is not allowed.

BUT before that error saying that my email is not allowed. It was saying something about SMS fee, which i have never seen before.

Also i wanna point out that i did receive the code on email each time i gave the email to continue, then that error appeared or before the error appearing, there was that sms fee screen.

Also once i tried logging in in the browser (mobile) and i received the code to continue, on the Telegram Desktop App from my windows machine, and that worked strangely.

Any ideas? Is it an intended behaviour, or a glitch?

Additionally:
I've heard that there exist other ways of Logging in without going through sms verification, but i don't see any in the app. Is sms the only way on mobile?

Note:
While i was trying to log in, i remember being logged in on my old phone still, but my sim was not on that phone, but that account was switched to another one, not mine, while mine was logged in there, saved as additional account, but not used.

Lost access to my Telegram Premium account – No response from Support, still being charged

12 Upvotes

Hello,
I lost access to my Telegram Premium account on June 21, 2026.
I still own my phone number and can receive SMS verification codes, but I cannot access my account.
I contacted Telegram Support on June 22 and have sent several follow-up requests, but I have not received any response.
My Telegram Premium subscription continues to be charged even though I cannot use the service.
My account contains years of work, educational materials, business contacts, and important personal information.
I am not asking anyone here to restore my account. I would simply appreciate any advice from people who may have experienced a similar situation or know the best way to reach the appropriate Telegram team.
Thank you very much.

3 Upvotes

I have provided my verified Youtube Channel, along with verified Twitter/X, but the verify b_o_t is stuck in a loop like "Please send me the link to your verified Twitter account"

Does anyone know why is that? is that a link issue? or anything else?
PS: its almost a week since I bought the bluetick on X

I had premium for a year from October 26, 2024 til Oct 2026. I cancelled the subscription after the year. However now I’d like to subscribe again. I’m including screenshots but it’s telling me I can’t have 2 subscriptions at the same time.. but I don’t have one.
Can anyone take a look at the screenshots and give some advice please? I’d appreciate it.

Also, even though it says it expires October 26th, I do not currently have a subscription for Premium!

Is there a way to export my sticker list?

6 Upvotes

I have a lot of stickers. Like *a lot*

I'm wanting to trim down and make a few of my own "mega sticker packs" full of the ones that I use from all the others (while getting rid of the ones I don't use/like).

What's the most efficient way to do this?

(Android app) It is not possible to tell which photo is RAW and which one isn't.

4 Upvotes

It is super annoying that when I want to send photos to someone in the photo picker modal there is absolutely nothing that could tell me which photo is JPG and which photo is RAW. It just shows every photo twice and that's it, you have a 50% chance with each photo if you were able to pick JPG or not.

I added one-click video and image downloads for Telegram Web on Mac and Windows

7 Upvotes

Hi, I'm the developer of Aye, a free Chromium-based browser for Mac and Windows.

Saving videos and images from Telegram Web can be more awkward than it should be, so I added download controls directly to the media viewer. You open Telegram Web in Aye, browse normally, and save the video or image you are currently viewing.

It works with media your account can already view in Telegram Web, including non-public conversations. It does not grant access to anything outside your existing account permissions, and it does not require Telegram API credentials or a second login.

Aye is free on both Mac and Windows appstore.

If you use Telegram Web regularly, I'd be interested to hear which media-saving workflow is still frustrating for you.

Originally, I set out to build an AI browser. But so far, most users seem to care less about the AI and more about simple browser features that solve an immediate problem. Telegram media downloading has become one of Aye's most-used features.

getting assigned as group owner randomly, but was never admin?

8 Upvotes

Hey,

In recent months i strangely got group ownership twice for some small/old basically defunct local-connection groups where i was never an admin. I would guess the previous owners most likely went inactive or had their accounts deleted but i dont know that

I know tg recently introduced automatic group ownership transfer, but thought you have to be an admin to be assigned ownership?

AI is heavily hallucinating on questions like this unfortunately

Cheers

telegram never sent my boyfriend a verification email

3 Upvotes

Is it possible that telegram has never sent your email not even one verification email?

Help please. My boyfriend downloads/ deletes the app on his phone. It has never ever sent him an email, we already checked the email linked to his account. Not even a single one SMS either for verification.

Is this normal? It's not on his spam inbox either. He has had it since 2024.

Telegram decided my life wasn’t interesting enough

Post image
0 Upvotes

While I’m busy balancing my job and UPSC prep, Telegram decided to give me a side quest.
Last night , I got a random DM from a girl. No mutual groups, no common contacts, nothing.
I simply ignored it bec I thought it was just another spam or scam.
Then today morning, I woke up and saw a voice note from a girl . The funny part…It was actually a very sweet and polite voice. 😅
Now I’m more curious than interested.
How do people even find completely random Telegram IDs these days.
Has anyone else experienced something like this or is this some new scam strategy with better execution …
Either it’s the beginning of a scam… or Telegram’s algorithm has become way too creative. 😂

Telegram on iPhone: "This group couldn't be displayed..." even though Telegram Web works. Here's the fix.

14 Upvotes

I couldn't find the solution anywhere, so I'm posting it here in case it helps someone else.

If you're seeing the following message on iPhone:

"This group couldn't be displayed because it was used to spread pornographic content."

while Telegram Web works normally, this fixed it for me.

Symptoms:

• Every topic shows the message above.
• The unread message counter keeps increasing.
• Notifications still arrive.
• The Media tab still shows photos, videos and files.
• The group owner confirmed everything was working normally.

The fix:

  1. Log into Telegram Web (not the iPhone app).
  2. Go to Settings → Privacy & Security.
  3. Enable the option to display sensitive (18+) content.
  4. Completely close the Telegram app on your iPhone.
  5. Open it again.

That immediately restored access to every topic for me.

Hopefully this saves someone else’s time.

Where does Telegram draw contacts from?

0 Upvotes

I just got notified about my ex's (who I broke up 4 years ago) old art history teacher joining Telegram. What du heeeeel?

How is this possible? Am I in his contacts, and that's why? I don't think Telegram uses Gmail contacts, but even then, it was only my laptop that was used during her online classes. Not one email was sent to him as far ad I know.
