Nekogram FAQs

Is Nekogram the official Telegram app?

No. It is a separate third-party client. Check its publisher, package and source before signing in.

Will every Telegram chat transfer?

Do not assume that secret chats, local files and client preferences transfer. Cloud chats and device-specific data are different; retain account recovery access.

Which APK should I choose?

Check the minimum Android version and the architecture supported by the installed system. ARM64 means arm64-v8a and ARM32 means armeabi-v7a. A file named universal does not guarantee support for every TV, emulator or x86 system.

Can I install an update from another website?

Mercurygram FAQs

Is the Tor add-on included?

No. The listed files are the Mercurygram client APKs. An add-on is a separate component with its own requirements.

Will updating preserve all client settings?

Keep the same channel and verify backups where available. Migration of local settings or secret chats from another client is not guaranteed.

Which APK should I choose?

Check the minimum Android version and the architecture supported by the installed system. ARM64 means arm64-v8a and ARM32 means armeabi-v7a. A file named universal does not guarantee support for every TV, emulator or x86 system.

Can I install an update from another website?

Use the same original project distribution and check the package, edition and signing channel. Preserve local data before changing editions. A matching download hash identifies the file; it does not guarantee device compatibility, security or a successful update.

Use Telegram chats, groups and channels on Android.

Before you download

Telegram provides both a store edition and an Android download from its website. The web APK may use a different package and update path.

Get started

Review active sessions and who can see your phone number. Use the edition and update instructions offered by Telegram.

Keep your data when updating

Keep access to your phone number and two-step verification recovery method. Cloud chats and device-specific secret chats are different; do not assume every conversation will transfer.

Use the original distribution channel where possible. Compare the package and edition before replacing an installation. A different signature or an older version can prevent an update; do not uninstall or clear data as the first troubleshooting step.

If installation or playback does not work

Compare the installation channel and package before switching editions. A login-code problem needs Telegram account support rather than another architecture.

Check the Android requirements and architecture shown above. Open the downloaded APK on your own Android device, read its notices and keep system protections enabled. Review any temporary browser installation permission afterward.

Telegram FAQs

Is this the same edition as Google Play?

The website download may have a different identifier and update mechanism. Read Telegram’s instructions before replacing a store installation.

Will reinstalling restore secret chats?

Do not assume so. Secret chats are tied to their devices and differ from cloud chats. Preserve anything important before removing an installation.

How do I choose the correct APK?

Check the minimum Android version and the architecture supported by the installed operating system. ARM64 means arm64-v8a; ARM32 means armeabi-v7a. A 64-bit chip does not prove that the installed system supports ARM64. Use the file picker, or the publisher’s store if available.

Can I update an installation from another source?

Check its package, edition and source first. A different signing key can prevent an update. Back up important data and consult the publisher before switching channels; do not uninstall or erase data as the first troubleshooting step.
