Private groups and channels do not appear in Telegram's search results. You can only join a group or channel if you have an invitation link. Group administrators or existing members often share these links. Once you have the link, you can click on it, and it will open Telegram.
On your Android smartphone, open the Telegram app and tap the search button from the top-right corner.Now, type in the name of the Telegram channel that you want to join and select it from the search results. This will open the Telegram channel. You can browse around to see the latest updates.
Open the Telegram app and tap the pencil icon in the top right corner to start a new chat. Select "New Secret Chat" and choose the contact you wish to engage with discreetly.
Tap the “Username” at the top to see their account details. Navigate to the top right corner and tap the “Three-vertical dots” menu. Select “Add contacts” from the drop-down menu. If they have hidden the phone number, you'll see “Mobile hidden.”
To view a Telegram private group without joining it, you can use a mutual contact who is a member of the group to share the group's messages with you. Alternatively, you can use third-party applications that allow you to view the group's messages.
The rationale behind this decision was a request made by media companies including Atresmedia, EGEDA, Mediaset and Telefónica who argued that Telegram was being used to share copyrighted content. On 25 March 2024, Pedraz revoked his previous decision as it would turn out to be "excessive and not proportionate".
Anyone can find them in Telegram search and join. Private channels are closed societies – you need to be added by the owner or get an invite link to join. Please note that private channels with publicly available invite links will be treated in the same way as public channels, should it come to content disputes.
Private groups are not open to the public and cannot be found with an in-app search. The only way to join private groups is to get the invite links from the creator of the group or an admin. Such Telegram invite links begin with t.me. Public groups, on the contrary, are searchable by every user.
If the group or channel you want to join is private, it won't appear in search results. Plus, a friend might also want you to join their Telegram group. In these cases, you'll have to use an invite link sent by someone already belonging to the group or channel in question.
