TGVault
A desktop app for Windows and macOS that turns your own Telegram channels and Saved Messages into a private media vault. Post photos, videos and files, filter them by type, stream video inline and keep uploads and downloads running in the background.
The challenge
Telegram works well for chat, but not as a personal media vault. Files get buried in chats, videos have to download before they play, large uploads are hard to track and the global chat list is always in the way.
The solution
TGVault shows only Saved Messages and the channels you create in it. Each channel opens with filters for photos, videos, files and text. Videos play as soon as you open them, transfers run in the background with live progress, and you sign in once with your own Telegram account.
