A terminal-based Telegram client written in Python with a TUI interface. It supports viewing and sending media, voice messages, stickers, secret chats, and chat management directly from the command line.

Use cases

  • use telegram from the terminal
  • send and read telegram messages without leaving the command line
  • view telegram photos and videos in a tui
  • record and send voice messages from terminal
  • manage telegram chats with vim-like keybindings
  • access secret chats in a terminal client

When to choose

  • you live in the terminal and want telegram without a gui
  • you want a lightweight, keyboard-driven telegram client
  • you use linux or macos and prefer tui apps like neomutt or ranger

When to avoid

  • you need full bot support or message search, which are unimplemented
  • you need a graphical interface with rich media rendering
  • you need voice recording or notifications inside docker
