1. QR Code Sharing on Mobile​

On the Telegram mobile app, you can generate a QR code for your personal account, group, channel, or bot to quickly share it with others. However, please note:

  • Telegram itself does not have a built-in "Scan QR Code" feature.
  • If someone sends you a Telegram QR code, you can use your phone’s built-in camera app to scan it. After scanning, it will automatically redirect you to the Telegram app and open the corresponding page. WeChat's scanner may be blocked by Tencent.

If your phone’s default camera is blocked or doesn’t work properly, you can use this third-party QR code scanner: https://tgqrscan.com/en/index.html

If you want to log in to Telegram on your computer, you can use the QR Code Login feature:

  • Open the Telegram Desktop client and choose “Log in with QR Code”
  • Then use your Telegram mobile app and navigate to:
  • Settings → Devices → Scan QR Code
