What the store says
Pure instant messaging — simple, fast, secure, and synced across all your devices. One of the top 5 most downloaded apps in the world with over 1 billion active users. FAST: Telegram is the fastest messaging app on the market, connecting people via a unique, distributed network of data centers around the globe. SYNCED: You can access your messages from all your phones, tablets and computers at once. Telegram apps are standalone, so you don’t need to keep your phone connected. Start typing on one device and finish the message from another. Never lose your data again. UNLIMITED: You can send media and files, without any limits on their type and size. Your entire chat history will require no disk space on your device, and will be securely stored in the Telegram cloud for as long as you need it. SECURE: We made it our mission to provide the best security combined with ease of use. Everything on Telegram, including chats, groups, media, etc. is encrypted using a combination of 256-bit symmetric AES encryption, 2048-bit RSA encryption, and Diffie–Hellman secure key exchange. 100% FREE & OPEN: Telegram has a fully documented and free API for developers, open source apps and verifiable builds to prove the app you download is built from the exact same source code that is published. POWERFUL: You can create group chats with up to 200,000 members, share large videos, documents of any type (.DOCX, .MP3, .ZIP, etc.) up to 2 GB each, and even set up bots for specific tasks. Telegram is the perfect tool for hosting online communities and coordinating teamwork. RELIABLE: Built to deliver your messages using as little data as possible, Telegram is the most reliable messaging system ever made. It works even on the weakest mobile connections. FUN: Telegram has powerful photo and video editing tools, animated stickers and emoji, fully customizable themes to change the appearance of your app, and an open sticker/GIF platform to cater to all your expressive needs. SIMPLE: While providing an unprecedented array of features, we take great care to keep the interface clean. Telegram is so simple you already know how to use it. PRIVATE: We take your privacy seriously and will never give any third parties access to your data. You can delete any message you ever sent or received for both sides, at any time and without a trace. Telegram will never use your data to show you ads. For those interested in maximum privacy, Telegram offers Secret Chats. Secret Chat messages can be programmed to self-destruct automatically from both participating devices. This way you can send all types of disappearing content — messages, photos, videos, and even files. Secret Chats use End-to-End Encryption to ensure that a message can only be read by its intended recipient. We keep expanding the boundaries of what you can do with a messaging app. Don’t wait years for older messengers to catch up with Telegram — join the revolution today.

The worldwide figure also includes storefronts without a chart (priced from rating activity) and storefronts we don't track, so these rows add up to less than it.

“"Free" App Magically Behind a Paywall Now!. They're trying to charge me an SMS fee to send the text to verify my number. Yeah, right! Made the switch to Signal and it feels MUCH more secure and the UI is actually smoother! Do it today.”

“New update full of bugs. Please fix! New update is full of bugs, when i read messages it still shows unread, when opening someone profile pics its so laggy and slow, when a new person messages me the block button disapears for no reason! Why these kind of bugs should appear after 10 years of such professional application?”

“please bring back multiple message selection upto the latest message feature. whenever i visit telegram, there are around 20+ messages that i have to forward to another chat from a main chat. in the past this was quite easy as all i had to do was tap on the first message on two fingers and drag it down and it would scroll while selecting the messages. whola!! everything is selected! and now it's gone and i have to manually select everything one by one and it's exhausting. please bring it back. i wish i could downgrade the app just so i can use the feature again. thank you”

“Horrible customer service. 0 if I could. I actually was starting to like this app, until for no reason whatsoever, no explanation I could no longer text inside of groups. I could not join anything new. I tried to contact Customer Service, and of course it was the Run Around Bots and no humans. This is the same reason I left Facebook. I don't like Leaving bad reviews, because I think most people want to do a good job. However, when the human equation is removed- there can be no reasonable resolution.”

“Remove delete chat history for the other features. Please remove the feature where you can delete the whole chat permanently for both yourself and the other person. That is invasion of privacy. Being able to delete/unsend some recent msgs for both parties is fine but the entire chat history?????? And no recovery without backup? Do better”

“Worest updates. After the recent updates, on older iPhones—for example, the 7 Plus—battery consumption is excessively high, to the point that with half an hour of use, the phone both gets extremely hot and the battery drops from 100 to 0.”

Where these numbers come from
App details: Apple iTunes Search API, updated Oct 31, 2026, 11:41 AM UTC.
Rankings: App Store chart positions we collect several times a day. A missing rank doesn't mean zero.
Downloads and revenue: AppTrendKit estimates, not official Apple or developer numbers. Revenue is what users spend, before Apple's commission.
Model: public-signal-ensemble-v6. Ranges get wider when we have less data.
Confidence: Medium · generated Nov 3, 2026, 12:36 AM UTC · window Oct 4, 2026 – Nov 2, 2026.
Country figures are each storefront's own chart-based estimate and never show more confidence than the worldwide figure. Worldwide downloads can be higher than their sum: they also count storefronts where the app doesn't chart (priced from rating activity) and storefronts we don't track.
