About

Telegram Desktop is the macOS desktop client for the Telegram messenger. The official site describes it as a fast, secure desktop app that syncs with your mobile phone. This Homebrew package is the beta variant, named telegram-desktop@beta; it is distinct from the regular telegram-desktop cask and conflicts with it.

  • Provides a desktop client for Telegram messenger.
  • The official site describes synchronization with the mobile phone app.
  • The official site identifies the software as available under the GPL v3 license and links to its source code.

Install with brew install --cask telegram-desktop@beta, then open Telegram Desktop from Applications. The cask installs Telegram.app as /Applications/Telegram Desktop.app. Its macOS dependency means this cask is intended for macOS. The beta cask conflicts with the regular Telegram Desktop cask, so they cannot be installed together through these casks.
