First and foremost, Telegram’s headline feature is privacy, and to ensure this it employs end-to-end encryption. This is what stops those outside a two-way conversation — be it a company, the government, hackers, or someone else — from seeing what has been sent.

Now, you can just search for the term and tap on the “search bar” at the bottom to find all the search results in the list view. The cool features of Telegram aren't all so serious, though.
