      I'm pretty sure it doesn't, but just to ask:

      Does Telegram support sending text messages to people who do not have telegram? I know Signal on Android does just not familiar enough with Telegram to know its capabilities.

      Thanks!

        My understanding is that it does not as you need to have the user as a contact (either via mobile number or username). If they have not got Telegram are you talking about sending normal text messages (SMS’s) or messages to other apps such as Whatsapp? I know that Pidgin in Ubuntu is a multi-client chat app but Telegram is now currently,

          I'm talking normal SMS messages. Do they have to have telegram to send texts to or not?
