How to Share Telegram Group Link

Telegram is a cloud-based instant messaging application that provides end-to-end encryption to its users. It was founded in 2013 by Pavel Durov and his brother, Nikolai. The app has more than 500 million users globally, and users can send text, voice, and video messages as well as documents and photos. Telegram’s key features include secret chats, self-destructing messages, and groups with up to 200,000 members. It also allows users to create channels for broadcasting messages to a large audience. And today, I’m going to show you how to share a group link with your friends on Android devices, iPads, or iPhones.

Steps to Share Telegram Group Link – Android Users
I will now explain how you can share Telegram groups on Android phones. The process is completely similar for iPad and iPhone users, but I will explain everything in the iOS users section. If Android isn’t your thing, you can skip this part with your mind at ease.
Step 1:
For the first step, open Telegram on your phone. Its icon is circular, with a white paper rocket in the middle and blue color as the background.
Step 2:
Tap on the group you want to share its link.
Step 3:
On the upper left corner of your screen, you can see the group profile icon. Tap on it.
Step 4:
Tap on “Add member”.
Step 5:
Tap on “Invite to Group via Link”.
Alternatively, you can add a member to this group directly via your Telegram contacts if you prefer so.
Step 6:
Tap on either “Copy Link” or “Share Link” based on what you want to do with it. “Copy Link”, as it sounds, copies the link to your phone’s clipboard so you can manually send it yourself. Choose “Share Link” for a more convenient and easier approach.
Step 7:
A new page will pop up if you chose “Share Link” and asks you to choose the method you want to use to share this link. You can choose any app you want, even telegram itself! Once you have chosen, tap on the app.
Step 8:
Now select whom you want the link to be sent to. They will receive the link, and if they have Telegram, they can join the group if they simply tap on it.
That’s pretty much everything you needed to know about the process on Android. You can share it on Instagram as well. Follow my guide on “How to React to a Message on Instagram” as I explain you can send a direct message on Instagram there.
Steps to Share Telegram Group – iPad and iPhone
The process for iPad and iPhone is identical to that of Android. But as I promised, I will explain in full.
Getting a Link to a Private Group
Step 1:
Open Telegram on your device. If you have seen it on an Android device, you know it’s a bit different. Instead of being circular, it’s a square with curved corners.
Step 2:
Now, in the lower middle of your screen, find and tap on “Chats”.
Step 3:
Tap a private group.
Step 4:
In the upper right corner of your screen, you should be able to see the group’s profile icon. Tap on it.
Step 5:
Tap on “Add Members”.
Step 6:
Tap on “Invite to Group via Link”.
You can Alternatively add members directly from your Telegram contact list should you wish to.
Step 7:
You can either choose “Copy link” or “Share Link”. If you choose the latter, share link, then a page will open asking you to choose the app you wish to share it in, and from there, you can choose whom to send it to. If you choose copy link, the link will be copied and saved to your clipboard and you can send it to anyone you want manually.
Getting a Link to a Public Channel
Step 1:
Open Telegram on your device.
Step 2:
Proceed to “Chats” in the bottom center of your screen.
Step 3:
Now select a public channel and tap on it.
Step 4:
In the upper right corner of your screen, you should be able to see the channel’s profile icon. Tap on it to open the profile.
Step 5:
Tap and hold on the URL under “Share Link”.
Step 6:
Now choose the newly appeared “Copy” option. Once you do, the link will be copied to your clipboard. You can manually send it to anyone you want. You can even add this link to your Instagram post for others to use. To find out more, simply read my guide on “Add Link in Instagram Post”.
That’s everything you need to know about sharing a Telegram private group and public channel. If you have any questions, meet me back in FAQ (Frequently Asked Question), I might have answered your question there.
Steps to Share Telegram Group – PC or Mac
I covered how the process is done on Android and for both iPad and iPhone users. Let’s be fair, it’s now the time I explained how to do the same thing on PC or Mac, and believe me, it’s a lot more similar than you think.
Step 1:
Open your internet browser. You don’t need to use Google Chrome; any internet browser will do. It’s preferable, however, that you use an up-to-date version so you can benefit from all the latest security updates.
Step 2:
Type “web.telegram.org” in the address bar. You will be taken to the Telegram page. If it’s your first time here, you will be asked to log into your account. You will have to provide your login information. A verification code will be sent to you as well.
Step 3:
From the left panel, click on a group. This action will open that conversation on your right side.
Step 4:
Click on the group’s name at the top of your screen. This will open the group’s profile. Depending on the supported version of Telegram by your browser, it will slightly vary. On the older versions, it will open a new page. In the newer versions, the profile page will open on your right side.
Step 5:
Click on “Invite to Group via Link”.
Alternatively, you can click on “Add Member” to directly add them from your Telegram contact list.
Step 6:
Now it’s time to copy the link. If you are a regular computer user, I bet you know more than one way to copy this link. You can double-click on it (and then go to the next step for the rest of the guide). You can use the “Ctrl + A” command and then “Ctrl + C”, or you can simply select it, right click and choose copy. How you do it is up to you.
Step 7:
Now, I want you to right-click on the selected link. This action will open a new menu.
Step 8:
From the new menu, choose copy.
Step 9:
Now you can share the link with whomever you want. You can send it to someone on Telegram or some other social platform. If they have a Telegram account, they will be able to join this group.
That’s everything there was to say about how you can share a Telegram group link on a PC or Mac. Take a look at FAQs for answers to your possible questions.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

A: Depending on the version you are using, it’s either Telegram K or an earlier version, you have to read either the Android section of this guide or the PC section.

Q: After I logged in, I was asked for another password. What’s that?
A: If you are asked for a password after you log into your account, whether you are on PC or Android, it means that you have activated your “Two-step Verification”. Enter the password you selected for it when you enabled it and you should be fine.

A: The link to your channel has probably been changed. Maybe by you or another admin. Try sending them another link or add them directly yourself. Or maybe you did something in your channel that got it blocked. To find out more about this topic, view my guide on “Fix This Channel Cannot Be Displayed Telegram”.
