Advanteges of using telegram

The cloud-based messaging feature is one of the biggest advantages of Telegram in my view. It gives an upper hand to Telegram over Whatsapp. So what happens, in other messaging apps all your media files and data stored locally on your phone whether it is an image, video, music or something else which ultimately eat up all your local storage space. However, with Telegram, this is not a problem, all media files including chat store on the Telegram secure cloud servers and remain there until and unless you want to download some of the files manually to save on your local storage. Yes, the cache will be created by the app on local storage. See: How to install the Telegram app on Ubuntu 19.04/Linux Mint?

Up to 1.5 gigabytes in size per file

Are you getting frustrated on Whatsapp while sending some big files? If yes then here is one more advantage of Telegram which is its ability to send larger files. In contrast to WhatsApp that only allow sending files up to 16MB to 100MB( depending on file type); the Telegram users can share photos, videos, audio messages and other files up to 1.5 gigabytes in size per file.

48 hours message revoke

Unlike Whatsapp, the users of Telegram can edit or delete their sent messages up to 48 hours. This means you have plenty of time to correct your mistakes or typo errors. It allows a user to delete from single message to whole chat any time from the beginning without any time limit. Moreover, if the chat deletes process initiated by one user it automatically deletes the same from the other user’s end including from Telegram servers. Thus, no strings attached at all…

Add People Nearby without phone number

It is really annoying to add someone on your Instant messenger because for that first one has to add her/his number into the phone’s local contact book and then need to refresh IM app to send a message; even if you don’t know that person and just want to send some single time message. This procedure ultimately creates a lot of contact junk on our phone. Telegram can save us from all these unwanted phone numbers saving tasks by simply allowing us to add them in our chat list using GPS.

Yes, it is possible Simply open Contacts > Add People Nearby to quickly exchange contact info with Telegram users who are standing next to you (and also have this section open).
