Telegram has become the most downloaded app on Google Play Store

Telegram gained popularity ever since WhatsApp has announced its new privacy policy; users have discovered peace in other messaging apps including Telegram and Signal.

While there were several opinions about WhatsApp’s privacy policy, users noticed the other apps were more secure and trustworthy even before WhatsApp could justify its case.

However, Telegram appears to have certainly profited due to this unexpected shift of users from WhatsApp.

Telegram has grown to the most downloaded app on the Google Play Store as per the most advanced sensor tower report.

Telegram has jumped from the ninth position to the top place on Google Play Store.

It is the fourth most downloaded app on Apple’s App Store. And if we see the overall downloads, Telegram commands the top place here as well.

“Telegram was the several downloaded non-gaming app worldwide for January 2021 with more than 63 million installs, 3.8 times its downloads in January 2020. The countries with the highest number of Telegram installs were India at 24 percent, followed by Indonesia at 10 percent. App download estimates are from Sensor Tower’s Store Intelligence platform,” Sensor Tower report stated.

The largest number of downloads were from India at 24 percent. TikTok enhanced the second most downloaded app despite sustaining a ban in India.

“TikTok was the second most installed non-gaming app worldwide last month with nearly 62 million installs. Countries with the highest number of TikTok installs on mobiles were from Douyin in China at 17 percent, followed by the United States at 10 percent. Signal, Facebook, and WhatsApp stood out as he tops five most installed non-gaming apps worldwide for the month,” the statement stated.

Telegram has now made it more comfortable for users to export their chat from WhatsApp to Telegram.

Describing the feature, Telegram stated, “Over 100 million new users joined Telegram this January, seeking added privacy and freedom.

But what about the messages/conversations and memories that remain in older apps WhatsApp and some others? Everyone can begin their chat history, including videos and documents to Telegram from apps like WhatsApp, Line, and KakaoTalk. This serves both for private chats and groups.
