Telegram on your TV. Built for watching.
TeleV turns the videos and live streams in your Telegram channels and chats into a lean-back TV experience, navigated entirely with your remote.
Free · Android TV & Google TV · Android 8.0+
Everything you follow on Telegram, on the big screen
No casting, no phone in hand. A real TV app for the channels you already watch.
Sign in from the couch
Scan a QR code with Telegram on your phone, or use your phone number. Two-step verification is supported.
Live streams
Watch channel and group live broadcasts in real time, and flip between active streams with the remote.
Smooth video playback
Videos stream straight from Telegram with smart caching, so even very large files play without filling your TV's storage.
Continue watching
Pick up any video right where you left off. Adjust playback speed when you want to go faster.
Favorite channels
Hold OK on a channel to pin it as a favorite, so it always shows first on your home screen.
Search & archive
Find public channels and browse their video history. Archived chats get a screen of their own.
Made for the remote
Every screen is designed for D-pad navigation and readable from across the room.
