Prunegram is a Telegram cleaner tool that helps you declutter your account. It scans your chats, identifies inactive groups, dead bots, muted conversations, and scam channels — then lets you remove them in bulk.

How does Prunegram clean my Telegram?

Prunegram connects through Telegram's official API to scan your chat list. It categorizes chats by activity, type, and health — then gives you smart recommendations on what to clean. You choose what to keep and what to remove.

Is Prunegram safe to use?

Yes. We never read or store your messages or contacts — Prunegram only sees metadata like chat names, types, and activity dates. Your login session is encrypted, stored securely, revocable anytime from Telegram → Settings → Devices, and deleted immediately when you log out.

Can I delete multiple Telegram chats at once?

Yes — that's one of Prunegram's main features. After scanning, you can select multiple chats across categories and leave or delete them all at once, instead of doing it one by one.

Does Prunegram work on desktop?

Prunegram runs as a Telegram Mini App, so it works on any device where you use Telegram — including phones, tablets, and desktop. Just open it from the @prunegrambot in Telegram.

Scanning is free and unlimited. Bulk cleanup is paid: a 72-hour pass is $9.38, lifetime unlimited access is $29 at the launch price for the first 500 users ($99 after), and the optional AI pack is $2.99 per month. Payments go through Telegram Stars or TON.

Prunegram vs TgEraser: Which Telegram Cleaner Fits You?

Updated July 2026

TgEraser and Prunegram both get recommended when your Telegram needs a cleanup — but they solve different problems in very different ways. TgEraser is a free Python script that deletes your own messages from chats. Prunegram is a Telegram Mini App that cleans your chat list— dead groups, bots, muted channels — in bulk. Here's the honest breakdown.

Side by Side

	Prunegram	TgEraser
What it is	Telegram Mini App (runs inside Telegram)	Open-source Python command-line script
Setup	Open @prunegrambot — about 2 minutes	Install Python, clone the repo, create your own Telegram API ID/hash, run from a terminal
Main job	Scan your whole account; bulk-leave groups, delete chats, dead bots, scam channels	Delete your own messages from chats and groups (message eraser)
Scan / preview first	Yes — free unlimited scan with categories before anything is touched	No visual scan; you target chats via command-line prompts
Interface	Visual dashboard in Telegram on any device	Terminal only
Message deletion	No — Prunegram never reads or deletes individual messages	Yes — that is its core feature
Bulk leave groups	Yes, with smart categories (inactive, muted, dead bots)	Not its focus
Credentials	Telegram login; encrypted session, revocable, deleted on logout	Your own api_id/api_hash in a local config file — you manage the security
Price	Free to scan; $9.38 72h pass or $29 lifetime (launch, first 500 — $99 after)	Free (open source) — costs your setup time
Maintenance	Maintained product with support via @prunegrambot	Community repo; you update dependencies yourself

The Setup Difference, Honestly

TgEraser's setup is the real cost of "free." You need Python installed, the package from GitHub or PyPI, and your own Telegram API credentials from my.telegram.org — a page that intimidates plenty of non-developers. Expect 20–30 minutes the first time, more if pip or Python versions fight back. Once running, it does exactly what the README promises.

Prunegram's setup is opening a link: tap @prunegrambot in Telegram, press Start, and the scan begins. About two minutes, nothing installed, works the same on a phone as on a desktop.

When TgEraser Is the Right Choice

You specifically want to erase your own message history from groups — that's TgEraser's core feature and Prunegram deliberately doesn't touch messages.
You're comfortable with Python, a terminal, and creating your own Telegram API credentials.
You want free and open source, and you're happy to audit and run the code yourself.

When Prunegram Is the Right Choice

Your problem is chat-list clutter: hundreds of dead groups, forgotten bots, muted channels eating storage and attention.
You want to see before you delete — a free scan categorizes everything first, and you choose what goes.
You don't want to install anything: it runs inside Telegram on your phone, tablet, or desktop.
You want a maintained product with support, not a repo to babysit.

Pricing is public: scanning is free and unlimited; bulk cleanup needs a $9.38 72-hour pass or $29 lifetime access (launch price for the first 500 users, $99 after). Payments go through Telegram Stars or TON.

A Note on Safety

Both tools use Telegram's official API, and both create a session you can revoke from Telegram → Settings → Devices. The difference is who holds the keys: with TgEraser you create and store your own API credentials locally; with Prunegram the session is stored encrypted server-side and deleted immediately when you log out. Neither approach reads your message content for scanning — and you should distrust any cleanup tool that asks for more than it needs.
