Is Telegram down right now?

Operational. We reached Telegram from all 10 regions we check.

How does RealUptime check if Telegram is down?

RealUptime checks Telegram with scheduled HTTP probes against its public, unauthenticated functional endpoints, run from named regions on a fixed cadence, plus an extra confirmation probe whenever a signal suggests a problem. This verifies that the functional endpoints we probe actually answer, not that every feature of Telegram works end to end.

What does "degraded" mean for Telegram?

Degraded means Telegram answered our probe but at several times its own seven-day median response time. Degraded only ever applies to a reading that answered: a surface that is down, or one that refused our probe, is reported as down or awaiting data instead, never softened into "degraded".

What is Telegram's current response time?

RealUptime's most recent measured response time for Telegram, by region: US-East: 617 ms, US-West: 812 ms, Europe: 111 ms, Asia-Pacific: 1307 ms, US-Central: 499 ms, Canada: 529 ms, UK: 223 ms, Southeast Asia: 980 ms, Australia: 1129 ms, South America: 1186 ms. This is the latest single probe reading per region, not an average.

When did RealUptime last check Telegram?

Why some readings show as awaiting data. 1 of 20 readings for Telegram came back as a filtered response to our automated checks (a response code that refuses automated clients, such as 403, 405, 406, 429 or 451, a redirect loop, or a timeout we could rule out as a real outage using a second endpoint) rather than a normal success or failure. That tells us about our own probe's reception, not about Telegram's actual health, so we publish no verdict for those readings rather than guessing in either direction. Read how we tell the difference.

Is it Telegram, or is it you?

Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Telegram -- it cannot diagnose Telegram's own systems.

These are unverified reports from people using Telegram, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We started counting reports for Telegram on September 8, 2026.

Recent outages

No outages on record yet for Telegram.

measured entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works

We have been measuring Telegram since August 8, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

The badge shows the share of our probes that succeeded over the last 30 days, and the window is printed on it so the number always says what period it covers. If our readings go stale it says stale, and if we have no readings it says so: it will not show green on data we cannot vouch for. Free, no account, and it links back here. See how the badge works for every window and the honesty rules behind it.

What Telegram's SLA implies, from our measurement

Window

What you pay per month

Uptime target in your contract

Include outages only one region saw (none)

At or above your target

We measured none of downtime for Telegram over the last 30 days, which is 100% uptime by our reading. A 99.9% target allows 43 minutes over that period.

By our measurement there is no shortfall to claim for this period.

This is computed from our own probe measurements, not from Telegram's SLA instrumentation. Their contract is normally measured against their own systems, with their own exclusions and a claim window, so their figure and ours will differ. Use this to start the conversation and ask for their number. It is not legal advice and it is not a determination of what you are owed.

RealUptime is not affiliated with Telegram; the name identifies what we measured, and nothing here speaks for Telegram's own team. We send a single web request to Telegram from 10 regions on our own schedule and time the response. We do not see inside Telegram's systems, do not use an account or real transaction, and are not the same signal Telegram's own team has access to. Treat this as one external data point, not a verdict. At least one endpoint we check for Telegram is a real functional API call (marked “functional” above), not just a landing page, so a clean read there is a stronger signal than reachability alone, though it still does not cover every feature of the service.
