What you can get
Worth knowing before you try: Telegram only hands out media on the web below a size limit of its own. Past it, its page says the media is too big and offers the app instead — and there is nothing for any site to fetch, ours included. Testing twelve posts on one channel, five were served and six were over the limit, so a long video is more likely to be refused than a short one. Private channels and anything needing a login cannot be read at all.
The web limit, measured
Telegram publishes a web preview of each public post, and that preview only serves media under a size limit of its own. Past it the page shows a poster and a button telling you to open the app, and there is no file behind it for anyone to fetch. Twelve consecutive posts on one channel came out like this:
| Outcome | Posts | What this page does |
|---|---|---|
| Served | 5 | The video row appears and converts |
| Over the web limit | 6 | Says so by name, rather than failing |
| No video in the post | 1 | Says there is nothing to take |
That is why the error here names Telegram’s limit instead of saying something went wrong: a generic failure reads like our bug and invites a retry that cannot succeed.
Public channels only
A private channel, a group and a direct message all need an account, and this tool never signs in as anyone. A public channel that later goes private takes its old posts with it.
Frequently asked questions
Why does one post work and the next not?
Size. The smaller one is under Telegram’s web limit and the larger one is not.
Can you support private channels?
Only by holding people’s Telegram sessions, which we will not do.
Do voice notes work?
Yes, like any other sound file in a post.
