Viber is now at the same stage
The Telegram messenger is gradually turning from a “geek application” and a local phenomenon into one of the most popular applications in its class in the world.
Another success of Telegram. The application has overcome the mark of 500 million installations on Google Play
Another proof of this is the new mark on Google Play. According to the app store, only on Android Telegram messenger was installed more than 500 million times. Of course, this does not correspond to 500 million users, but still, the figure is very impressive.
For comparison, Viber now has exactly the same mark. True, given that the next mark is 1 billion, the performance of the programs mentioned may vary greatly, but Telegram is much younger. This messenger debuted in 2013, while Viber – three years earlier.
As for the number of Telegram users directly, a couple of weeks ago the developers boasted of this indicator, which reached 400 million people.
