Where to begin when using Telegram Web? First, find the login page via a search engine. You'll immediately be prompted to log into your Telegram account using a QR code. If you already use the app on your smartphone, logging in will take just a few seconds:
If two-factor authentication is enabled on your mobile app, you will also need to enter your password in Telegram Web.
If you don't use the mobile app or prefer not to log into Telegram Web using it, you can select the "Log in with phone number" option below the QR code. Enter your phone number and the code you receive in the app or via SMS if you don't have the mobile version of Telegram.

To make a call, select a contact and find the phone icon in the upper right corner. There, you'll also find three vertically aligned dots that open a small menu. Here you can manage the contact, make a video call, block or edit the contact, etc.

Telegram is one of the most secure messaging apps. This applies to all its versions. To further enhance protection, use two-step verification.

Choose complex passwords and don't ignore two-factor authentication.
The logout button in Telegram Web is somewhat awkwardly placed, and beginners might need help finding it. You need to go to the Settings menu and select Settings.
