Using Telegram's QR Code Functionality

Telegram offers robust QR code functionality, making it easy for users to share profiles, groups, channels, and bots. While Telegram's mobile app supports generating QR codes, the app itself doesn't directly provide a 'scan' feature. Below is a detailed explanation of how to use Telegram's QR code functionality.

Summary

Using Telegram's QR code functionality can significantly simplify the information sharing process. By scanning QR codes with their phone camera, users can quickly access relevant content, and easily log in on desktop by scanning a QR code.

Detailed Instructions

1. Generating and Sharing QR Codes On the mobile app, users can generate QR codes for their profiles, groups, channels, and bots, making them easy to share with others. Although the Telegram app doesn't have a built-in 'scan' function, users can utilise their phone's native camera function to scan them. Once scanned, the link will automatically open the Telegram app and direct them to the relevant information.

2. Using Third-Party Apps Users can also leverage third-party applications like 'Intent', whose developers have added a 'scan' entry point within their clients, making it more convenient for users to utilise the QR code functionality.

3. Logging In on Desktop On the desktop, users can choose to log in by 'scanning a QR code'. This requires using the Telegram mobile app to scan the QR code displayed on the computer screen. The specific steps are: On the mobile app, go to Settings, select 'Devices', and then tap 'Scan QR Code'.

By following the methods above, users can fully leverage Telegram's QR code functionality, enhancing the efficiency and convenience of information sharing.
