Connecting Telegram

1. Create a bot with @BotFather in Telegram and copy its token.

3. In TallyReel, open Settings → Channels → Telegram and paste the token and your channel’s @username (or its numeric id).

When to post

Best time to post on Telegram

Telegram subscribers receive a notification for each post, so timing is about respect as much as reach: avoid late nights in your audience’s timezone, and space posts out rather than sending five in a row.

TallyReel starts every account from the same baseline, weekday peaks at 8 AM, 12 PM, 5 PM, 6 PM, weekend peaks at 10 AM, 11 AM, 7 PM, 8 PM, in your audience’s local time, and after about 20 published posts shifts it toward the hours that actually work for you.

Write it well

Telegram posts that land

• Channels reward concise posts with a clear link. Captions on media are limited to 1024 characters.
• When a post has media, the text becomes a caption and Telegram caps it at 1,024 characters. TallyReel switches the counter automatically when you attach media.
• One clear link per post works better than several.
• Your bot token is stored encrypted and only used to send the posts you schedule.
