Privacy policy
VueGram collects nothing.
Last updated: 25 October 2026. This policy covers the VueGram app for Android TV and Google TV, and the websites vuegram.com and docs.vuegram.com.
The short version
- VueGram has no accounts, no servers, no analytics, no ads and no crash reporting service.
- Your Telegram data goes between your TV and Telegram, and nowhere else.
- What VueGram remembers (where you stopped, your settings) stays on your TV.
What goes to Telegram
VueGram is a Telegram client built on Telegram's own library (TDLib). To show your groups and channels and play their videos, it talks to Telegram's servers with your own API ID and hash and your Telegram login, the way any Telegram app does. Telegram's own privacy policy covers what Telegram does with it. VueGram is unofficial and not made by Telegram.
What stays on your TV
- Your Telegram session and your API ID and hash, in VueGram's private storage. They are excluded from Android's backups and device transfer.
- Where you stopped in each video, what you watched, the chats you pinned or hid, and your settings.
- The last crash report, if VueGram ever closed unexpectedly. It is shown only in VueGram's Settings, and you can delete it there.
- Videos are streamed, not stored: the parts you watch are deleted when you leave the player.
Logging out (Settings › Log out) deletes the Telegram session and your watch history, pinned and hidden chats and crash report from the TV. Uninstalling VueGram deletes everything.
The one other request: updates
At most every 12 hours, VueGram asks GitHub's public API for the newest VueGram release, and downloads it from GitHub when there is one. Nothing about you or your TV is sent, beyond what any web request carries (the TV's IP address, seen by GitHub). You can turn automatic updates off in Settings.
During setup: the page for your API keys
To save you typing with a remote, VueGram can show a QR code that opens a small page served by the TV itself, on your home network, where you paste your API ID and hash from your phone. The page exists only during setup, sends the keys straight to the TV and nowhere else, and closes once they arrive.
Voice search
The microphone button uses your TV's own speech recognition (on Google TV, Google's). VueGram receives only the recognized words, to search with. Your TV's speech service is covered by its maker's privacy policy.
These websites
vuegram.com and docs.vuegram.com have no cookies, analytics or trackers. They load the Outfit font from Google Fonts, and vuegram.com asks GitHub's public API for the latest release number. They are hosted on Cloudflare, which, like any host, sees the requests made to it.
Children
VueGram shows content from your own Telegram account and is not directed at children.
Changes and contact
Changes to this policy are published here and in VueGram's GitHub repository. Questions go to the repository's discussions; security problems are reported privately as its security policy describes.
