You may be more used to using WhatsApp, but the truth is that Telegram has become an alternative (or even more) efficient than the Facebook messenger. So much so that several times news of resources appears that the famous “Zap” copies in the hard face of its main rival.
If you already use Telegram, it is natural to encounter situations in which you need to change your phone number, either by a simple number change or because you entered something wrong during your registration. Fortunately, it is quite simple to change the phone number on Telegram, and below we teach you how to do this. Here, we are using the app on the iPhone, but the procedure is the same on Android.
1. Open the Telegram app and tap Settings.
2. Tap on top of your name, right at the top of the screen where the number and your user @ appear. On Android, there is the same field with the option Account. Then, tap Change Number.
3. The app will ask for a confirmation of the exchange. Confirm and enter the new number.
Ready. That's it.
It is important to remember that, even with the exchange of numbers, all your data shared and received on Telegram will be saved, since they are linked to your account on the service. This includes photos, videos, messages, and other content.
