Chat via Telegram on your Apple Watch, using Pigeon.
By Vincent Neo • March 22, 2023
Pigeon is a new, unofficial Telegram client that is designed to run on the Apple Watch.
No companion apps, 100% standalone.
Messaging your friends on Telegram, directly on your watch has never been easier! You can currently send either text or GIF messages using Pigeon, with more types to come in the future.
Pigeon also displays formatted texts, so you get to see your messages bolded, in italics or most other formats supported by the Telegram platform!
Did the news outlet channel that you subscribe to, send you a message linking to an interesting article? Or, did your friend send you a URL about an interesting website?
With Pigeon, you can directly preview the web link, right on your watch, with just a tap on the link!
That's not all! Pigeon also supports the viewing of images, videos, voice notes and GIF messages too. For images, you can even zoom in using the Digital Crown of your watch.
So is it secure? Pigeon is built using Telegram's official SDK, the Telegram Database Library (TDLib). Also, the app does not collect or track your personal data, so you can chat with ease.
Give Pigeon a try today!
