If you joined a Telegram group, maybe you want to invite someone you know – like a friend or a coworker – alongside you to make them participate in the conversation, because you think that they might be interested in the group’s subject, or maybe your friend asked you to be added. Read this article till the end and find out how it’s done!
Telegram is an instant messaging service focused on speed and safety, it’s very easy to use and free. The app can be used simultaneously on every device, because the messages automatically synchronize on any of your devices – smartphone, tablet, computer…
We can say that Telegram offers a much more impressive service than, for example, its competitor WhatsApp: the app lets you send messages, photos and every type of file up to 1,5 GB (doc, zip, mp3), you can create private chat groups with as many as 200,000 members, and there also public channels, open to every Telegram user.
Speaking of private Telegram groups, to join one of those you need to be invited via link beforehand (unless you’re the group creator, of course). If you’re already in a group, though, you can share the group link with a friend. Now, let’s dive right into the article to see how this works.
Get and share a Telegram group invitation link (iOS)
We’ll now illustrate how to share a Telegram group/channel link:
- open the Telegram app on your iPhone
- tap Chats at the bottom of your screen
- now, select the private group – or public channel – of which you want to get the link
- at the top-right corner of the screen, tap the group icon
- next, select Add Members
- tap Invite to Group via Link. There are three options you can choose from: 1) Copy Link 2) Revoke Link 3) Share Link
- if you choose Copy Link, the link will be copied to your clipboard and you can share it by simply pasting it anywhere you want. If you go for Share Link instead, you’ll send the link directly to someone through another app (WhatsApp, Instagram Direct, Facebook Messenger, …)
NOTE: wether you’re the group owner or a simple group guest, the link sharing procedure will be just about the same.
