1. Optimize Telegram's Built-in Search​

Best for: Quick access when you already know the name or ID.

1.1 Precise Search for Public Groups/Channels/Bots​

Steps:

1. Open Telegram → Click the search bar (magnifying glass icon).

2. Type the full ID or English keyword:

   • Format: @targetID (e.g., @tingtalk).
   • Note: Chinese keywords (like "庭说") may not work well; use English or pinyin when possible.

3. Click on the desired result → Read the description → Click "Join" to enter.

Warning: Many scam groups mimic popular ones by altering characters (e.g., replacing "i" or "l" with "1"). Double-check the target ID.

1.2 Fuzzy Search Tips​

  • Groups: For groups
