Store listing

Full description
Hortay is an independent reader for Telegram channels — a clean, social-media-style feed instead of an endless message stream. No chat clutter. No "suggested" posts. No ads. ✦ Twitter-style feed One post, photo, reactions — no wading through 800-message group queues. ✦ Posts as written Quotes, infographics, custom emoji, animated stickers — never clipped, no "show more" after the third sentence. ✦ Discussions, not avalanches Comments rendered as threads, like a proper social network. Not an endless scroll into an 8000-message group chat. ✦ Doesn't eat your storage A "Storage and traffic" panel shows real numbers — what was downloaded, what is taking up space. One-tap cache clear. ✦ Fast cold start Pre-built Baseline Profiles. No jank on 200 channels. ✦ Privacy by default No analytics, no Firebase, no ad SDKs. Internet is used only to talk to Telegram. Open source. Hortay is built on TDLib, Telegram's official open-source client library. You sign in with your phone number through Telegram's standard authentication — your account stays on Telegram's servers, nothing is proxied through a third party. Hortay is for people who read Telegram channels more than they message. — Hortay is an independent third-party application built using Telegram's public API. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Telegram FZ-LLC or Telegram Messenger Inc. "Telegram" is a trademark of its respective owner.
