 Telegram is a great messaging app. And in this video, we're going to learn how to start a chat, create a group, and create a channel in Telegram. Let's start a chat. In iPhone, upon opening, Telegram has various tabs along the bottom menu. Select Chats to display any messages already sent or received. When you open the program, you will see a list of contacts who recently installed the program. Now let's start a new chat. In iPhone, at the top right corner, press the new message icon here. In Android, you see it in the right corner, down here. Perfect! Now we need to find our contact in the next step. Select Contact. Your contacts already using Telegram will be displayed in a list. Use the search bar at the top to find them. As soon as you press on your contact's name, a blank new message window will appear for you to send and receive messages with them. Your conversation history will also now be stored and displayed within the chats tab under the name of your contact. That's it! Now let's start another chat, but this time a secret one. Use the search bar at the top. For the contact you would like to have a secret chat with, tap on the contact's name once you find it. Now, click here. Then click here. The Start Secret Chat feature will be listed. Tap on it. A dialog box will appear asking you to confirm that you would like to start a secret chat with your contact. Press Start and your secret chat will begin. Your contact will be invited to join the secret chat. Also, you will see a window specifying what the secret chat does as you can see. And that's it!

In iPhone, tap on the New Message icon here. In Android, in the lower right corner you will see this pencil icon. Click on it. You will see this view. Now select New Group. Your contact list will now appear allowing us to move on to the next step. Tap on the name of each person you want to add to the group. Notice Telegram groups can have up to 200,000 members. Once you have selected all of the contacts you would like to add, tap on Next. Or, in the case of Android, on the arrow icon here. Give your group a name. And if desired, add a profile photo for the group by clicking on the camera icon. Finally, press Create. And your new group chat will be open and can be found under the Chats tab for easy reference. But let's say you have 200,001 friends. Don't worry. Telegram's got you covered with Telegram Channels. Select the New Message icon in the Chats tab here. Now choose New Channel. A brief message will appear explaining what a channel does. Tap Create Channel to get started. Now give your channel a name. You can even add a description to tell people what the channel is all about before they subscribe. Done? Let's move on by tapping on Next, or an Android in the checkmark. If you would like anyone to be able to find and subscribe to your channel, choose Public. As long as no one else is already using the same words or phrase, you can customize the Invite link here. Telegram will tell you if it's available or not. However, if your channel is going to be Invite only, then use the Private option. A link will automatically be created and can be shared by using the Share Link button. Once you have configured your channel and have a link for it, tap Next, or checkmark an Android. Every channel needs an audience, so start by choosing some or even all of your contacts right away. Then tap Next, or an Android in the checkmark. That's it. Your new channel is live and now broadcasting. This has been Rod from Burn to Learn. Thanks for watching.
