I agree creating a group or channel for every single time we need a group call it's very annoying. WhatsApp does this better, sadly..

Why is it impossible to add a person who is not in the same group to the conversation? Or how to add person to call without group? Why it is impossible?
Ching | xPersephonex Jan 1
I indeed this this pls! I do not want to invite a guess into the group, but have to kick the guess out of group later because of possible sensitive information!

We need this, Telegram! In Whatsapp you can add participants to a video call. It would be amazing to do the same in Telegram!
