Frequently Asked Questions
Telegram Downloader is a browser extension for Telegram Web. It detects loaded videos, images, audio and files that the current account is allowed to access, then provides individual and batch-save controls.
Open Telegram Web after installation and enter a conversation the current account can access. Open or play the target media and wait for it to load; when detected, save it beside the media or from the batch panel. The extension cannot enter conversations you are not authorized to access.
The extension can detect videos, images, audio, GIFs and common files. The final extension, quality and size depend on the source Telegram Web actually loads and provides; this page does not promise format conversion or a fixed size limit.
The extension should only process media that the current Telegram Web session is already allowed to access and has loaded. Review the store permission disclosure and the website privacy policy before installing, and never submit your Telegram password or verification code to a downloader.
Confirm that the active account can still view the message, then open or play the media and wait for it to load. Refresh Telegram Web after installing or updating the extension. Deleted, unloaded or unauthorized content cannot be recovered by the extension.

Should I use a link downloader, plugin, or history manager?
Three ways to handle different tasks. Choosing based on content entry and long-term management needs is more accurate than simply comparing 'how many functions'.
| Plan | most suitable | Premise | Main boundaries |
|---|---|---|---|
| Online link downloader | A small amount of public media, fast downloads | There are replicable messages or media links available | Unable to process content without links or requiring loading in the current session |
| Telegram Downloader plugin | Desktop current session, batch media selection | Account logged in and able to load target media | Cannot restore deleted content or enter unauthorized sessions |
| TG History Manager | Long term local archiving, cross session search, and media management | Pre synchronize or archive data that is still accessible | Independent client, currently under development, functionality and release date subject to product page |
