How to close your Telegram account

Like WhatsApp , Telegram is an instant messaging mobile app that can be used on iOS or Android. Although it now has more than 500 million active users, it still lags far behind other email service providers on the Internet.

If Telegram hasn’t won you over as an alternative to WhatsApp or other apps, and you want to delete your account for good, there are several options available to you, whether you’re on Android or iOS. Please note that once your Telegram account is deleted, all your contacts, messages, documents, links and photos will be permanently erased and cannot be restored.
