Telegram is a new messaging app that offers speed, security and features such as secret chats with end-to-end encryption and self-destructing messages.It made a lot of people really scared and concerned about the current situation. We are certainly among many, many people who started to think about ways to fix the problemTelegram is based on a custom data protocol called MTProto built Nikolai Durov, a mathematician.
The app’s secret chats, a separate feature from its ordinary chats, use end-to-end encryption. They cannot be forwarded and can be set to self-destruct after a certain amount of time. One key difference between Telegram’s secret and ordinary chats is that secret chats are not stored in the app’s cloud, which means you can only access messages from their device of origin.
Telegram’s founders say the app will remain non-profit because that enables them to avoid commercial and legal pressure. If they eventually need funds to scale up, Telegram will ask for donations from users or make additional services available as in-app purchases.
These could include a virtual number that can be used instead of a real mobile number, ensuring more confidentiality.he app messaging space is very competitive of course, with most users choosing Whatsapp as their primary source of messaging friends and family. Whatsapp is a very functional app with great features, but you may be surprised to hear that Telegram could offer something better for you.

If you are a user that finds Whatsapp slow and sluggish during use, Telegram could provide the speed boost that you are looking for. We’ve tried out the app already ourselves and can confirm that navigating around the interface and various chat settings is freaking fast.
Nikolai Durov oversaw the scaling up of VK’s platform as it grew to 50 million daily unique users over seven years. Pavel says the lessons the brothers learned during VK’s development means they will be able to make sure Telegram remains secure even if its user base rapidly expands.If Telegram received requests from government or legal organizations, it would not be able to provide data for end-to-end encrypted chats anyway because the encryption keys are generated on each user’s device and not the server.
Conclusion:
Additionally, all data sent in secret chat mode is not logged on their servers ensuring that all messages are completely private between the two users.
What Whatsapp has at the moment though is an established community. Obviously those using Telegram for the first time will probably notice that their contact lists are bare with no friends using the app.
As it grows in popularity though, the secret chat mode as well as the ultra fast browsing experience may tempt users to switch over.
