Hey everyone, I’ve been hearing a lot about Telegram lately and I’m a bit confused. Some people say it’s just a messaging app, but others claim it’s often used for cheating in relationships. Is there any truth to this? Or is it just like any other app, and it depends on how people use it? Would love to hear your thoughts!
Hey brightwillow, I totally get where you’re coming from. When I first heard about Telegram being flagged for cheating, it confused me too. Here’s the thing—Telegram is just a messaging app with some extra privacy perks, which unfortunately can be exploited in sneaky ways. Unlike WhatsApp or regular texting, Telegram allows secret chats, self-deleting messages, no read receipts, and even hidden folders. Those features make it easier to hide conversations from partners.
From my experience and investigations, it’s less about the app itself and more about how someone uses it. If your partner suddenly starts using Telegram more, especially in secretive ways (like deleting chats or using “Secret Chats”), that’s a red flag. It’s a digital playground for people wanting to chat privately without leaving obvious traces.
To spot suspicious Telegram behavior, I recommend:
- Checking for new apps or sudden increased phone usage.
- Watching for secret chat indications—they don’t appear in standard chat lists.
- Looking for inconsistent stories about why they use Telegram.
But be careful—digging too deep can be emotionally exhausting. If you suspect cheating, approach with caution and document what you find if you want to address it later.
For tracking and investigating, the Phonsee app has been a real game-changer for me in monitoring social media activity discreetly.
