TelegramBuddyTelegramBuddy browses your Telegram like a normal chat app, then downloads the photos, videos, documents and message text you pick — in bulk, into tidy folders, without opening a browser.
Three steps, and your files never leave your machine.
Scan a QR code with your phone, or use your number. The session stays in a file on your computer — no TelegramBuddy account exists.
Open any chat, group or channel. Read the whole history like a normal chat, or switch to the gallery grid and filter by photos, videos, music, voice or documents.
Select a range, or every matching file in the chat. Downloads run several at a time, survive a restart, and skip what you already have.
Course channels, family groups and years of backlog are the normal case, so the app is built around them.
The chat view shows every message oldest to newest — text and files together, with day separators and thumbnails. Scroll up and older messages load. Click to select, shift-click for a range, or take all files, all text, or everything loaded in one go.
Pick a chat and download every photo, video, document, music file or voice message in it. Select many chats at once and queue them all. The app scans the entire history, not just what is on screen.
Large files keep their partial data and continue from where they stopped — after a pause, a dropped connection, or closing the app entirely. Finished files are skipped on the next run, so re-running a channel only fetches what is new.
Paste a t.me invite link, a private t.me/c/ message link, an @username or a numeric id to open a chat that is not in your list yet. Works with private groups and channels you are a member of.
Files keep the name Telegram gave them. Each chat gets its own folder, optionally split into Photos, Videos, Files, Music and Voice. File dates are set to the date of the post, so sorting by date matches the chat.
Select messages and save their text to a file in chat order. Or export a whole chat to a readable HTML page or JSON, with its media linked inline.
Downloading and exporting work today. Forwarding, AI summaries and channel tools are on the way, each with its own page.
Runs on your computer, signs in as you, and nothing you download passes through anyone else's server.
