 SMS to Telegram

In a nutshell, it just forwards SMS from your phone to Telegram.

Why?

Well let’s say you have a phone and for some reason you left at home.
And you need to access a 2-factor authentication website, with help of
SMS to Telegram you can receive you OTP on telegram, on a desktop or
web.

Is it secure?

Yes, The App forwards your SMS directly to your Telegram, no proxy
servers are in between. The project is open sourced. Link below

However, sending an SMS from your telegram goes through our

Servers. This was done because it’s not technically possible to identify
your device, unless its registered on our servers. This option is totally
optional you can skip it.
