How to Find Your Nearby People and Groups on Telegram Messenger

How to Find Your Nearby People and Groups on Telegram Messenger:

1. open Telegram and tap on the three-lined menu. When the side menu slides out, tap on the People Nearby option. 

2. Telegram will need access to your location to use this feature. Once you tap on the Allow Access option, the app will ask you to only allow access when using the app or Deny it. Just because you allow Telegram access, it doesn’t mean that you’re going to be visible right away. 

3. Once you give Telegram permission and move on to the next step, you’ll see all the Telegram users near you. At the top of the list, you’ll see the option to make yourself visible. Right below the person’s name, you’ll see how far away they are from you. 

4. Swipe all the way down, and you’ll see nearby groups. This means that you’ll see groups that were created near your location. You can see how many members are in each group and how far the group was created from you. When you enter a group, you can see the last thing they mentioned, and you should also see the button you’ll need to tap on to join the group.

If you don’t see any groups you like, you can always create one yourself. Tap on the Create a Local Group option.
