First Time Using Telegram? Feeling Confused?​

Many people, right after registering on Telegram, open the app only to find a blank screen — no content, no activity. The immediate reaction is often:
"What’s the point of this app? It’s not fun at all!"

If you've had a similar experience, it’s likely because you haven’t discovered the right way to use Telegram yet.

Find the Right Entry Point — That’s When Telegram Gets Interesting​

Telegram is a semi-open social platform. Its core lies in groups and channels. Whether you're looking to chat, share information, or access resources, nearly everything revolves around joining groups and subscribing to channels.

So here’s the key question:
How do you find the groups and channels that interest you?

One super useful Chinese-language group search tool is @chineseSearchService.
It’s a navigation bot that helps you quickly find resource-sharing groups or interest-based communities.

You can find it in two ways:

  • Simply click this link to join 👉 @chineseSearchService
  • Or search for @chineseSearchService in Telegram's main search bar and click to enter

There are also many similar search channels and bots, such as:

And a variety of search bots with similar functions:

Just try joining one of these search channels or groups — you’ll find some great content before you know it.

How to Use Navigation Groups​

Once inside a navigation group, simply type in keywords in the message input box, such as:

  • Madou
  • Beijing
  • Japanese
  • Chinese
  • ChatGPT
  • Twitter Rankings
  • Doge
  • Leaked
  • AV Code

No matter what you're looking for, there’s a good chance you’ll find a related group. What you discover all depends on your curiosity and creativity.

⚠️ A Friendly Reminder: Stay Alert and Be Safe​

One important thing to note: scams are not uncommon on Telegram, especially in certain resource-sharing or trading groups.
Never conduct monetary transactions on Telegram!
If you come across suspicious groups or receive unsolicited DMs from strangers, be extra cautious and avoid falling into traps.

Give It a Try Now!​

Think of something you’re interested in — search it, join a group, explore it —
and you’ll realize the fun side of Telegram has only just begun.
