How to Hide Channels and Chats in Telegram from Prying Eyes

If you use Partisan Telegram by Cyber Partisans, you can rename any channel or chat however you like and disable its avatar.

This helps protect your privacy in everyday situations — for example, on public transport. If someone glances at your screen, they’ll only see the custom name you chose, which reveals nothing about the channel’s real content. Just follow the steps below to hide channels and chats in Telegram (more precisely, in Partisan Telegram).

⚙️ How to Rename Channels and Chats

1️⃣ Open the channel or chat.

2️⃣ Tap the name at the top of the screen.

3️⃣ Tap the three dots and select Edit Chat Name.

4️⃣ Enter the new name and tap Save.

To restore the original name, follow the same steps and select Delete.

⚙️ How to Disable the Avatar

1️⃣ Open the channel or chat.

2️⃣ Tap the name at the top of the screen.

3️⃣ Tap the three dots and select Disable Avatar.

These changes are visible only in PTelegram on your device. If you enter the Fake Passcode, the app restores the original names and avatars.
