However, neither the Telegram blog nor Pavel Durov have explained it.

To put it more clearly, the bots show the number of subscribers who have used the bot over the last 30 days, whether in their private messages (PM) or in a channel.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s good to know that SmartBotsLand bots have had this option for years. You can easily adjust the setting so that the bot shows the number of subscribers to all the users.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>NOTE<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: <\/span>The number you see on top of the bot is different from the TOTAL NUMBER of bot users<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"background-color: #ffff00;\"><strong>Latest Update on Jan 2025: If your bot doesn&#8217;t show the number of users anymore, don&#8217;t worry! There is nothing wrong with it!! In the latest update from Telegram, the bot shows the number of users only when it has more than 10K active users. So, if your bot has only 4000 members, you will NOT see the number anymore.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2118 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/smartbotsland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Telegram-bot-user-count-copy.jpg\" alt=\"telegram bot user count update\" width=\"503\" height=\"494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smartbotsland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Telegram-bot-user-count-copy.jpg 503w, https:\/\/smartbotsland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Telegram-bot-user-count-copy-300x295.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smartbotsland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Telegram-bot-user-count-copy-428x420.jpg 428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 503px) 100vw, 503px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><b>FAQs about Telegram Bot User Count<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b><span style=\"color: #003366;\">Is there any way to see bot users count in Telegram?<\/span><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The latest Telegram update has added this feature.
