    Hello everyone. What's the best Telegram client for BB 10.3? I use Social IM for Telegram on my Q10. My friend has a Classic and is having trouble using Telegram (I'm not sure what client he uses). Does Bomogram works better? Thanks.

    The android version is the only viable option. Push notifications work and you can get hub notifications.

    Also, if you don't have google play store, you can install it from f-droid.

    What about the ones you find on Amazon store? I found 3 or 4 clients there.

    If you're going to use an android app, I don't see a reason to use anything other than the official app. Especially since it's open-source.

    Here's the app in the f-droid repository https://f-droid.org/repository/brows...enger&fdpage=5

    I tried installing Telegram from F-Droid (from the app and downloading from web) but the system said the app cannot be installed...

    However, I also tried installing and alternative Android Telegram client from Snap, Aniways, and it works just great. For those who don't have Snap, you may try downloading apk from here https://apkupdate.com/apk/com.aniway...ram-unofficial

    Plus Messenger worked even better https://apkpure.com/plus-messenger/org.telegram.plus

    I suggest you use the official repositories and clients. Maybe from Google play (cobalt method). I usually don't trust those 3rd party apk websites.

    Have you tried downloading the apk directly from f-droid website instead of the app? The f-droid app is slow to load the installation of the apk. Takes about 30 seconds 1 minute

    Does it come with hub integration? Is it headless?

    Don't you guys encounter Android apps slow start up (loading) issue after installing Telegram (or others Telegram clients)?
    I always have this problem.
    Before I install Telegram (or other Telegram client, such as Plus Messenger) , all my Android applications run normal.
    After I installed Telegram, suddenly all Android applications take longer to load, like this:
    Attachment 416601

    Sometimes it also crashed (suddenly close).

    This issues will always occured, unless I wipe or run autoloader on my phone.

    Am I the only one who encounter this issues?

    I've been using the telegram official app for over 2 years. I've tried both the play store and the f-droid version on a passport and on a Classic, on OS 10.3.2 and 10.3.3. I never had any problems or slowdowns. Moreover, push notifications work even without gms.

    Because Telegram is not Signal.
