Unigram is a UWP Telegram client for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile.

The app is being created by a group of developers who are fans of the Telegram network but note “current official Telegram-app has no signs of releasing an UWP-version.”

Their app is still in active development, but currently already features:

  • Basic chat functionality
  • Use of emoticons
  • Stickers
  • Group chats
  • Show profile pictures
  • Share pictures
  • Search through notes
  • Mute chats
  • See if the message has been sent
  • See if the message has been checked
  • Start new chats
  • See if an user has been online
  • Set a profile picture
  • Use your phone number
  • Show notifications
  • And more…

UWP-specific:

  • Quick reply from notifications
  • Support for Continuum
  • Adaptive design
  • Share contracts
  • Integrate with the People Hub

The team are still working on features such as sending stickers and background functionality, but if you wanted Telegram on your PC for a long time, you can now pick it up from the Store here. If you are a developer you can join the effort to complete the app here.
