Telegram is not just an ordinary communication app; it can also serve as a massive data storage repository if you know how to use it effectively. Telegram’s storage doesn’t require additional space to run on your device. You can delete media stored in your phone’s memory while still keeping that media in conversations, ready to be downloaded whenever you need it. Let’s learn how to optimize your use of Telegram’s storage after reading this article.
Telegram’s Storage Repository
Step 1: Access and log into your Telegram account on your phone or personal device. Select the “Settings” option, then choose “Data and Storage”.
Step 2: Select “Storage Usage” on the next interface and try one or all of the following options:
1) Set up “Auto-Remove” to delete media stored in the cache after a certain period, with separate settings for Private Chats, Groups, and Channels, or customize settings for individual private chats.
2) Set a maximum cache size – if your cache reaches this limit, the oldest media will be deleted.
3) Find the largest media items using dedicated tabs and a detailed pie chart, and manually delete them from your cache, or select specific chats that take up too much space.
By using Telegram’s storage as described above, you can easily save space on your phone or computer. Don’t worry about Telegram consuming additional storage space. Moreover, you can create Telegram groups and store lessons, English learning videos, lecture videos, or math exam questions on Telegram. It can be extremely useful when needed.
