Which company is listed as the developer of Telegram?

The story behind the answer

Telegram FZ-LLC is listed as the developer of Telegram. It is the developer name associated with the official Telegram applications in app-store listings and in the software’s reference information.

Telegram itself was founded in 2013 by Pavel and Nikolai Durov. The company’s legal and operational structure has used several related entities over time, which explains why other names can appear in discussions about Telegram. Telegram Group Inc., for example, is associated with the wider corporate group, but it is not the developer label used for the app in this quiz.

Telegram FZ-LLC is also associated with the official Android distribution on Google Play. The distinction matters because “founder,” “company,” “publisher” and “developer” are not always interchangeable labels. Here, the question asks specifically for the listed developer, making Telegram FZ-LLC the canonical answer.
