The graph shows the percentage of respondents who regularly use the Telegram messaging application across ten countries, based on a survey conducted between 2023 and 2024.

India demonstrates the highest adoption rate at 45%, significantly exceeding other nations. Brazil follows at 38%, while Mexico and South Africa share the third position with 32% each. Spain closely trails at 29%, completing the top five countries in Telegram usage.

A notable gap exists between the top five countries and the remaining five. Italy’s usage rate of 16% is nearly half that of Spain’s. Germany, France, Great Britain, and Japan exhibit progressively lower adoption rates, with Japan recording the lowest at 9%.

The data shows a clear disparity between developing and developed nations in Telegram usage. Countries from the Global South, particularly India, Brazil, Mexico, and South Africa, show substantially higher adoption rates compared to Western European nations and Japan. This pattern suggests potential correlations between economic development, technological preferences, and messaging app adoption across different regions.
