Accessible telegram app for Mac

By Judith Pelaez, 14 October, 2019

macOS and Mac Apps

Hello everyone!

If you weeks ago, I downloaded the Telegram app on my Mac and discovered that it wasn’t accessible at all.

I was wondering though, does anyone know of an accessible version of this app?

I know that WhatsApp isn’t really accessible for the Mac either but you can navigate it a little bit.

Telegram however, it’s totally inaccessible for the Mac and I really wonder if you guys know about an app that I could download that resembles or duplicates telegram?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

I use Tweesecake as a Telegram client which functions through Apple Script. It's accessible, however not like using a native desktop app for Mac OS.

WhatsApp

I find that WhatsApp is largely accessible as I can read and reply to messages and compose new messages. As for Tweesecake, I've had to uninstall it as it would randomly stop pulling in new messages and the only way to resolve the problem is by deleting it and installing it which I have done countless of times. In the end, I gave up on it. We need an equivalent to Unigram which is an excellent third party app which is widely used by a lot of VI people.

Search AppleVis for Tweesecake. It's a good-enough telegram client.
