I cannot see my contacts on Telegram, nor add them to Telegram even though they do have a Telegram account
Guys please help me...
I have added over 100 contact numbers (manually) to my phone book recently and I cannot see any single one of them on Telegram contacts list, it only gives me an option to invite them to Telegram (but they all have Telegram accounts already!).
I tried to add their number directly on Telegram and it still says they don't have an account.
People can see me on Telegram, but I cannot see them.
I have this problem on two different phones with two different numbers, for the past few weeks now.
So far I have tried:
deleting the cache
uninstalling the app and downloading it from Telegram website
unsyncing and deleting synced contacts and then syncing them back again (in Telegram privacy settings as well as syncing them in Android settings)
reinstalling the app and then syncing the contacts in Android Accounts settings before turning on Telegram
updating Android to newest version
I have asked these contacts to change their privacy settings to make sure their number is visible to everyone
and probably few other things...
I can only see these contacts if they reach out to me first or if I add them by their nickname.
Contacts sync correctly on the other two accounts, but not on my main one.
I already checked:
- “Sync Contacts” is ON.
- App has permission to access contacts.
- I tried deleting synced contacts and re-enabling sync, but it didn’t work.
I have deleted and recreated this account several times in the past.
Maybe something is wrong on the server side for this number.
Please check and help me fix this issue.
Thank you!

Hi, I have this problem too. I am on 3 different phones with several accounts and different numbers, but none of them show my complete contacts. For example, out of 4000 contacts, one shows 200, the other 700, and each shows different numbers. Please help. I have reported this problem to Telegram several times and nothing happened.

I tested a lot of solution and non of them worked, at last from an error toast message in Telegram X and also checking the Log file from debug menu (iOS) i faced a wired problem from server respond. problem is from telegram server but the problem is no one from technical team listen to us for solving this issue, i tried email to support, bugs tickets, bot support and X social platform but no one is listening

Despite saving phone numbers, I cannot see their Telegram profiles, and their IDs do not appear. I have tried multiple devices and ensured that my privacy settings are correct, but the problem persists. Could you please assist me in resolving this issue? Thank you for your help!

Hey, author of this post here, I found that what can help is switching sim card to a different network. No 100% certainty I see all of them, but it seems the only thing that makes an improvement so far.

Just a few of my contacts are appearing on Telegram. What is the solution to get all the contacts to appear?

I have a problem with my main account.
I use 3 Telegram accounts on my iPhone.
Contacts sync correctly on the other two accounts, but not on my main one.
I already checked:
- “Sync Contacts” is ON.
- App has permission to access contacts.
- I tried deleting synced contacts and re-enabling sync, but it didn’t work.
I have deleted and recreated this account several times in the past.
Maybe something is wrong on the server side for this number.
