Secret Chats: Not Supported.

I did not get my 2-factor auth code.
- Please check both your Telegram app and SMS. It should be in one of those.
Are Topics supported for Telegram?
- Not at this time. If we do, we will communicate this with our users.

We're here to make sure things go smoothly! Please message us in your Beeper Support ( or Beeper Help) room or at help@beeper.com.
