Telegram is a robust social messaging app that is known to have large groups. Unlike WhatsApp which lets you have a more limited number of members in a group, Telegram allows more.

Just like many social messaging apps have the call feature in their app, Telegram also has this feature. It can let you make calls over the internet.
