About Telegram
Telegram is tracked in our Social & Messaging directory. This page combines live visitor reports with automated checks of the official website, so you can quickly tell a genuine outage from a problem on your own device.
Messaging and social apps rarely go fully down; more often media uploads, calls or stories fail while text keeps working. If only media is stuck, the problem is usually a partial outage or your connection.
If Telegram is not working for you
- Wait two minutes and retry once. Short server hiccups fix themselves.
- Switch network: move from Wi-Fi to mobile data, or the other way round.
- Try a different browser or device, and update the app if one is available.
- Clear the app cache (not your data) or the browser cache for the site.
- Turn off any VPN — many Indian services block foreign or VPN traffic.
- If a payment was debited, do not pay again straight away. Most failed payments reverse automatically; note the transaction reference.
Common questions
Is Telegram down right now?
Based on visitor reports from the last 24 hours, Telegram is currently showing as "Operational". Reports update in real time, so check the live count on this page before assuming the worst.
How can I tell whether Telegram is down or the problem is only at my end?
Try three quick things: open the service on a different network (mobile data instead of Wi-Fi), try a second device or browser, and look at the report pattern on this page. If many people report the same failure at the same time, it is almost certainly a wider outage.
What should I do while Telegram is not working?
Avoid repeating the same action over and over — especially payments, which can get stuck or duplicate. Wait a few minutes, check this page again, and if the matter is urgent, use the official helpline details linked from here. Never trust a support number from a random social post; fake customer-care numbers are a common scam.
