Fake Telegram Chat Generator
Make a Telegram-style chat with in-bubble times, green read ticks, “last seen recently” and the gentle gradient wallpaper.
Telegram's look is softer than most chat apps: pale green outgoing bubbles, white incoming ones with tails at the bottom, a centred header with the contact photo on the right, and a gradient wallpaper behind everything. It's also the app of channels, polls and big group chats, so this generator includes polls, forwarded messages, coloured sender names and admin labels for community-style scenes.
- Free, no sign-up
- Runs in your browser
- PNG, JPG and video export

Tips for a more convincing Telegram mockup
- Telegram groups are often large — set the status line to something like “2,481 members” for a channel feel.
- Bots reply instantly and formally; give bot messages identical timestamps for realism.
- Use the Forwarded label when a message is shared from a channel.
- Night theme is the most common Telegram look in screenshots shared online.
- If you're teaching about scams, add a visible “Example” label in your video or slide.
Use it responsibly. Mockups are for entertainment, education, design and storytelling. Don’t present them as real conversations, don’t impersonate real people, and never use them as evidence or to deceive anyone. Read our acceptable use policy.
