Question about the unavailable iPhone telegram.

Hi friends, I hope you're all doing well.
I have a question about the Telegram app on iPhone. I've been using an iPhone for about two years now, and I still can’t use Telegram properly. I’m not sure if it’s just me or if others have the same issue, but the app doesn’t seem very accessible.
For example, when I try to share a photo from the Photos app or a voice note from the Voice Memos app, after choosing Telegram, there’s no clear button to select the conversation or to send the message. There are a lot of problems like that — this is just one that came to mind now.
By the way, I’ve tried unofficial Telegram apps too, but there’s no difference.
Thanks in advance to all of you.

Just check out their silence over on their GitHub for Proof:

https://github.com/TelegramMessenger/Telegram-iOS/issues/267

The only iOS work around, is by using VO screen recognition in places. Or a blindness Apple dev would have to make their own specialized client for the modern age.

I'll toss recommended Telegram clients for Android in said AppleVis forum later on.

FYI: Telegram on Mac is no better either, no matter the client. The web clients are "somewhat" good...

Unless i'm mistaken, the telegram dev is... Not from the states, Russian, if memory serves, but the point stands; the nfb has no jurisdiction, as its... Not in the US, so contacting the nfb wouldn't accomplish anything. Now. If this was a developer that was from the states? Sure. But given he's not... nothing can be done; not by the nfb at any rate. If there is a equivalent organisation in the dev's country then... That could be a root worth pursuing but I doubt this is the case.
