<p>The official Telegram app for <ahref="https://desktop.telegram.org">Windows, OSX and Linux</a> is now available in compact mode — you can resize the window so that only a single column remains. This makes it easier to use Telegram on smaller <strong>desktop</strong> or <strong>laptop</strong> screens.</p>
<p>You can download Telegram Desktop at <ahref="https://desktop.telegram.org"><strong>desktop.telegram.org</strong></a>. As of last week, this app is also available in the <ahref="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/telegram-desktop/id946399090">Mac AppStore</a>, alongside with our <ahref="https://telegram.org/dl/osx">native OSX app</a>.</p>
<p>To log in on your computer, simply enter your phone number and get a code delivered via Telegram to your phone. All your messages (except those from Secret Chats) are instantly <strong>synced</strong> between all your devices, so you can continue right where you left off.</p>
