Telegram is also known as Telegram. Friends in mainland China can access it through Xiyou VPN (download link: https://xiyou88.github.io/vpn) to speed up. Due to some limitations of Telegram, the following situations may occur. You can follow the methods we provide to solve the problem.

1. How to set Chinese in Telegram

Description: Telegram itself is not adapted to Chinese. Telegram can be set up smoothly through Chinese plug-ins. You can set it up according to the following methods.

Solution: You can download the required version on Telegram (official website: https://telegram.org/), click https://t.me/setlanguage/classic-zh-cn plug-in → SET LANGUAGE to jump to set the current language to Chinese.



2. Telegram group keeps spinning and cannot be joined

Description: This is a limitation of Telegram. If you visit more than 200 groups or channels in one day (clicking to open is considered visiting, no need to join), you will be restricted for 24 hours. After being restricted, you cannot open any group or channel through the link.



Solution: You can only wait 24 hours before trying to visit or join.

3. Telegram prompts to update the software before logging in

Description: Your current Telegram version is low and needs to be updated.


​Solution: You can download the latest version of the corresponding update from Telegram (official website: https://telegram.org/) to solve the problem.

4. Telegram group shows connecting

Description: If you join too many groups in Telegram or there are a lot of download processes, it may cause the group to show connecting above when you visit, and you cannot see the information content immediately (as shown below).



Solution: Find the Telegram navigation → find the "settings" tab in the lower right corner → data and storage → automatic media download → turn off all the contents inside.
