Hello Wilfred!

 WvV> So far I don't read it can't originate from the desktop app.

True.. it seems that the FAQ doesn't seem to specifically state  
the difference or that limitation in the DT. I started using Tg  
with the DT gui prog. I naturally expected Secret Chats to be  
available too.  Phone chats worked, so why couldn't all the  
features? It baffled me for a long time.


 Au>> They are safe for as long as your device is safe in your
 Au>> pocket." So..  "in your pocket" would exclude a DT, I
 Au>> would presume.  ?

 WvV> Mwhoa... Indirect effidence. And for instance a raspberry
 WvV> pi, is small enough to put in your pocket.

But doesn't a Pi need a wire running from it for a power  
source?  And.. a Pi doesn't come equiped with a monitor and  
keyboard for "mobile" use.  ;)  So.. it doesn't qualify as a  
mobile device in the formal sense.
