DOWNLOAD AND UPLOAD BOOST How to get? Download and upload boost features are available only in beta-version of Plus. Read this before installing it: https://t.me/plusmsgrfaq/45. Your version is beta if last digit of its build number is 7, 8 or 9. If it is 0 or 1 then you use stable. Tap here to see your build number in brackets after version number (here is the screenshot where build number is marked). Where to find? Boost features are available in Plus settings » Downloads partition. Anything else? Features are experimental (the same as whole beta is). Everything may go wrong if you use them (the same as when you use beta at all). ❗️Use them at your own risk.

LOGIN BY E-MAIL ADDRESS INSTEAD OF PHONE NUMBER Sometimes Telegram platform switches user from phone-auth method to email-auth one. If this has happens then the app prompts you to type your e-mail address when you try to log into your account next time. After that you have to type the same e-mail as your login every time you log into your account, and Telegram sends one-time-code not to your phone number but to that e-mail. Please note the following: 1. It is Telegram who switches you. Not Plus Messenger. Plus Messenger just displays to user what Telegram server tells. 2. It is Telegram who sends codes to your email address. Not Plus Messenger. 3. You can not switch back to phone-auth method, as far as we know. But we may be wrong: we are not Telegram support. 4. Some details are available here: https://t.me/tginfoen/1481.

MUTUAL CONTACTS Plus Messenger provides displaying mark which shows is your contact mutual or not. Mutual contact is user who is added to your contacts list and who has added you to his contact list. This mark is displaying in your Telegram contacts list (App menu - Contacts). To turn mutual contacts marks (👤) ON do the following: 1. Open your contacts list: App menu » Contacts. If there is no "Contacts" in your app menu then turn them ON in App menu » Plus settings » Navigation drawer » Show menu options. 2. Tap on Contacts list screen header. See screenshot here.

I DO NOT GET VERIFICATION CODE Telegram platform does not send one time password (OTP) by SMS and does not call when user tries to login in third party app (like Plus Messenger). But if Plus user has active session on another device and/or in another app then Telegram usually sends OTP to that session. So 1. Install official app. 2. Log into your account there. 3. Then log into your account in Plus Messenger. Please note! If code does not come even when you log into your account by official app then this is Telegram issue, not Plus one. Maybe it relates to Telegram changes of 02/18/2023, and maybe it does not. You may contact Telegram support to get details: Settings - Ask a question. If you have another device with Telegram app camera then you can try QR-login feature in Plus Messenger: App menu - Add account - three-dots button - QR login. Advice If you are going to log out of your account in Plus Messenger or to uninstall app then make sure you have another active session of your account. If you have no another active session then create it: install another Telegram app (for example official one) on some of your devices and log into your account there.

WHY DO NOT I SEE SOME MESSAGES? Some issues (including: some messages are not displayed, some chats are not displayed, app regularly crashes and some else) may be caused by broken local messages database of Plus Messenger. To fix it please log out of your account and then log back. Please note: Telegram platform often does not send SMS and does not call to users who try to log into account by Plus Messenger. Please log into your account in some another app before logging out of it in Plus so one-time-code will come to that app when you log back into your account in Plus Messenger.

WHY ARE MY IMAGES SENT WITH LOW QUALITY? If you are having issues with images sent from your device appearing blocky, pixelated, and unreadable, then please go to Plus Settings > Messages > Quality of sent photos and make sure quality is set to 85%or more. We also recommend disabling the "Show photo quality bar" setting. This will hide the quality bar that appears when you send each image, and will prevent accidental changing the value. If you want to send an image/video with no compression at all (in case you want to send a long image, a 4K video, etc.) them 1. Tap on the 📎 paperclip button 2. Tap on "File" 3. Select the file you want to send Alternatively you can follow the instructions here

SOME WORDS ABOUT SPAM BAN Spamban restrictions do not relate to Plus Messenger support: it is Telegram platform who gives spamban and restricts accounts. But here is what we can say about that. If you can not • send messages to users who have not added you to their Telegram contact lists, and/or • add users to groups and/or channels by their usernames, and/or • send messages to public groups and/or join such groups, and/or • create groups and/or channels, and/or • add admins to your groups and/or channels then you probably got limited by Telegram. Why has it happened? • Maybe you've sent message to user who had not added you to his Telegram contact list and that user has reported you as spamer. • Maybe you've added someone to group or channel by username and that user has reported you as spamer. • Maybe some users have reported some of your messages in some group as spam. • Maybe something else has happened. What can I do? Start conversation with @Spambot and follow his hints. • If bot says you are not limited then do not trust him: sometimes restrictions are set on your account but Spambot does not yet know about them. Try few hours later or next day. • If bot says something like "your account is now limited until 18 Sep 2022, 12:18 UTC" then please note that time moment is given for UTC so time in your place can differ. • If bot says you are limited but does not tell when will restrictions end then you are limited forever. Anything else what I should know? https://telegram.org/faq_spam

CAN I RESTORE DELETED MESSAGE/GROUP/... ? Short answer: Deleted items can not be restored in Telegram. Long answer: Deleted means DELETED. Every item you delete in Telegram is deleted forever. Telegram does not give you any chance to say "I've changed my mind", to look in some kind of Recycle Bin, nothing like that. Everything deleted is deleted forever, without any way to recover it. This is true for messages, groups, channels, contacts, whole account and so on. This is not Plus Messenger restriction, this is Telegram one. Developers of any Telegram app should follow it.

TELEGRAM PREMIUM What is Telegram Premium? It is paid subscription which gives advanced features to user. Details are available in Premium FAQ. Please note: Premium subscription is Telegram feature, not Plus one. If you (for example) paid money and did not get premium features you should ask Telegram support about that. A visual demonstration of the premium features can also be seen in telegram's @Premium channel. Can I use Premium features in Plus Messenger? Yes. You can even tune some of them: read official channel posts (this and some newer). How can I purchase Telegram Premium subscription? First, make sure to read Terms of Service for Telegram Premium. There are two ways: 1. Official bot @PremiumBot. 2. Menu - Settings - Telegram Premium - "Subscribe for ..." button in the bottom. Each of these ways may work and may fail. It is upon Telegram servers. If one does not work then try another. If both do not work then install official app and try to get Premium there: all Premium features will be available in Plus Messenger after that. Does Plus provide any Premium features for free? No. Most Premium features are handled by Telegram server, so app cannot provide them itself. In the meantime, you can enjoy all original Plus Messenger features for free, as usual.
