Telegram is a new messenger app to compete with Whatsapp messenger. After using the Telegram app, I can simply say, it is fast, powerful and free app that every user should use. Whatsapp is changing frequently and developing some new and unique features. After that there is some emptiness in Whatsapp messenger.
You can use Telegram app for Android and iOs officially and Windows phone, Windows, Mac and Linux unofficially. I have been using Telegram from one month and very much impressed with it. There are many reasons to differentiate Telegram from Whatsapp. Let’s discuss some quick notable points of Telegram.
Material Design
Material design of Telegram is adopted from just released Android operating system Lollipop 5.0. If you are using latest Gmail app, then you can easily understand that what I am saying. There is a quick blue button at the bottom of Telegram to quickly send a message or create new group.
All Document Support
Both Whatsapp and Telegram use a faster cloud server to deliver multimedia files quickly. In case of documentation, Whatsapp only allows people to send Image, Video, Voice, Location and Contact. Instead of these, Telegram supports over-all types of files includes PDF, ZIP, RAR, EXE. It is a great feature, that one can send anything on it.
Username Facility
Username is your identity. When you set your name in Whatsapp, it only shows for group members. As like Wechat, Telegram is also providing Username facility for its users. A user can communicate with anyone by searching it’s Username and chats anonymously without disclose the identity; means phone number.
200 Group members
Latest version of Whatsapp facilitated multiple numbers of Group Admins. In that case, an Admin can provide administrator capability to any of the members. This feature is not available in Telegram, but a Group of Telegrams contain 200 members, which is 100 in Whatsapp. Larger group members mean greater fun and sharing.
More Customizable
For a mobile user, customization is the main aim. In the customization field, Telegram works a lot. It comes with some beautiful chat backgrounds and Save to gallery feature. If you want, then you can allow your Telegram files to show up in Gallery, otherwise not. Custom notification, Sound, LED light, PEBBLE, Privacy is more than Whatsapp.
Final touch
The main thing in Telegram is, it is totally free for the lifetime, without showing you ads. Try Telegram now and you’ll get something new and faster. If you want to connect with me on Telegram, then my username is @WhatTechSays.
