Telegram stands out in the world of messaging apps with its strong focus on privacy, robust encryption, and intuitive open-source API. What truly sets it apart is its capability to support large group chats, accommodating up to 200,000 members, surpassing competitors like WhatsApp and Signal. Additionally, Telegram’s group chat functionality is impressive, enabling users to gather large numbers of participants into a single discussion and share sizable files with ease.

This article will help you navigate through joining Telegram groups on any device and introduce you to finding groups through catalogs – an easy way to sift through and find groups that align with your interests.

Telegram Groups vs. Telegram Channels

Telegram groups and channels are different:

• Channels are for sending messages to lots of people at once, but only admins can post.
• In groups, any member can chat and send messages. Public groups are open for anyone to join, but you need an invite for private ones. Groups can have lots of members and lots of different types of media, like videos or polls.

 

How to Find Telegram Groups

Telegram’s search function is how you find groups and channels. It only works for public groups, though. If you want to get into a private group, someone needs to send you an invite link. Looking for a public group is easy if you know the group’s name or what it’s about. Here’s what to do:

 

On Mobile Devices:

 

1. Open the Telegram app on your phone.

2. Tap the magnifying glass icon at the top and enter the group’s name or a topic you’re interested in.

3. ‘Global Search’ will show you a list of groups. You might have to press ‘Show more’ to see all the options.

4. Tap ‘Join Group’ on the group you like, and you’re in.

 

On Desktop:

 

1. Start the Telegram app or use Telegram Web in your browser.

2. Put the group’s name or a keyword in the search bar at the top.

3. Look through the search results until you find the right group.

4. Click ‘Join Group’ to enter the group.

 

Finding Local Groups

To find groups near you, use the ‘People Nearby’ feature:

1. Open Telegram and tap the three lines in the top corner.

2. Choose “People Nearby” from the menu.

3. Allow access if needed.

4. You’ll see a list of nearby groups. Tap on one to join it.
