As its name suggests, the Telegram Desktop application has been tailored for desktop users, allowing them to log into their Telegram accounts, in addition to the mobile app, and chat with their buddies in a more comfortable matter.

For your convenience, the software is distributed as pre-built binaries that work on computers supporting either of the 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x86_64) hardware architectures. The source code of the app is available via GitHub.
