How to download PDFs and books from a Telegram channel
Log in to Telegram in FileSnatch once, open the channel on web.telegram.org, and go to the Files tab: every PDF and document the channel shared is listed, with covers, ready to download all at once or join into one PDF.
The problem
Channels that share books, notes or worksheets build up hundreds of documents over the years. Telegram makes you scroll back and save each one by hand, and there's no way to grab only the recent ones.
How FileSnatch helps
- The Files tab lists every document the channel shared, all the way back, with PDF covers and page counts.
- Read a PDF right in the panel before saving: it opens as it downloads.
- Download all, ZIP, or 1 PDF to join them into a single book, oldest first.
- Since… keeps it to the last week, month or year; Download new saves only what's new since last time.
