Store description excerpt

Before the telegraph, Pigeons ruled the messaging industry. Today, a little pigeon lives on your watch, bringing your messages across Telegram. That little pigeon, is none other than this app! Pigeon is a Telegram messaging client, built just for the Apple Watch platform. WORKS BY ITSELF Pigeon runs directly on your Watch, without a companion iPhone app, so that if you have a cellular plan, you can chat anytime, anywhere, with just the watch alone. PRIVACY FOCUSED Messages are communicated and received via Telegram’s official API, TDLib, to ensure the same level of secure communications, expected of the Telegram platform. None of your personal information is collected, so that you can chat with confidence. FORMATTED MESSAGES Pigeon receives not just plain old text messages. Formatted messages such as those with bolded, italics, underlined or strikethrough are presented as your friend had intended. SUPPORTED MESSAGE TYPES Pigeon also shows you the GIFs, stickers, photos, videos, contacts, location, voice and video notes, as well as documents* that your friend or channel had sent, while also allowing you to send* text, GIF, stickers, voice, photo^ and location^ messages to your friends too! You can even zoom in on the photos, and interact with the polls and quizzes! Currently supported document types includes png, jpeg, pdf, mp4, txt, rtf, md, gpx^ and more.
