Links not opening in Telegram: How to Fix

Clicking on the links, but the links are not working on the Telegram app? Most of the contents on the Telegram are shared over the links. So, the inability to open the links on the Telegram can be a frustrating experience. There are some solutions that you can implement to solve this problem.

If you have blocked the Telegram over the cellular data (to save mobile data), external links may not open up.

Step 1 – Go back to the Telegram page.

Step 2 – There, find the link that you are trying to open. Next, long-press the link there and tap the “Open in…” option.
