Great News for heimishe Android Users!

[Hacker26]

Hi All

Until now the Telegram couldn’t really be used by heimishe people as the app allows to search publich groups and channels which contain very dirty content sometimes.
Now some jewish developer has developed a telegram client which doesn’t allow to search publich channels and groups. The app is available for Android users only at the moment and can be found here.
Feel free to try out and report any feedback to the developer!

Thanks for reading!

Sounds solid stuff (a lot of customizations using the Teleteens bot)!

I used to use the ‎ChatSID Telegram client (developed by Livigent) but it was much more limited/restrictive.

The question is though how trustable this dev is (unlike a big vendor like Livigent). Technically it can compromise your account and all your chats.

@Knaper-Yaden I see that ChatSID is a app for apple and not officially available for android via play store… There is an apk file though… If you look in the describ. of the Teleteens app then you will see that he says clearly that this isn’t the official API…

But why can it compromise your account? Does Telegram block them??

I was using it from when it was still on the Play Store, but APK works as well.

By compromise I didn’t mean that Telegram will have an issue with it, just that this dev technically can steal all your messages and make any changes on the account.

Telegram doesn’t have an inherent problem with using unofficial Telegram API clients but it may potentially flag you (see https://core.telegram.org/api/obtaining_api_id, but they say that if you didn’t actually abuse it you can get it unbanned.)

@Knaper-Yaden Why did Google get rid of ChatSID??

Not sure, and not sure it was Google that got rid, maybe the developers decided for some reason to take it down.

There is also https://www.cloudveil.org/cloudveil-messenger/ (didn’t check it out ever).

Really is good, just a bug I already noticed
Once you join a group you can still access the group through the search bar, even if the group is actually blocked.
