The 10 most popular Telegram chatbots in Italy

Train schedules, museums or pharmacies closest to us: there are many chatbots on Telegram and all with different features. Here are the most useful

Telegram at the moment is not as widespread as WhatsApp but in recent years the number of users is constantly increasing. There are several advanced features that you can try on the app, and among them there is also the conversation with bots.

Let's start from the base: what are bots? Bots are programs that have access to all the information and data contained on the Internet and interface with humans as if they were real people. Telegram being an open-source app, it has given the opportunity to anyone to develop their own chatbots based on their preferred tastes and themes. This has led to a proliferation of quirky and unique bots within the app. Be warned though, a bot can be used not just for fun. But it comes in very handy for work as well. For example, a chatbot set to a single topic will allow us to stay up-to-date on the main news that interests us the most.

YouTube Audio

Let's start with a bot that is handy for anyone. With YouTube Audio just enter the link of the selected video on the famous video platform and we'll be able to download just the audio. A quick and convenient choice for those who want to listen to music on their smartphone. The correct nick to find the bot on Telegram is @YTAudio.
