Open the Telegram app on your device.

Telegram is renowned for its privacy features, including the ability to block unwanted contacts. However, feelings change, misunderstandings get resolved, or you might simply need to contact an old friend again. When that happens, knowing how to unblock someone is just as important as knowing how to block them.

Go to your Chats list and scroll down. Blocked conversations often remain visible, usually with a greyed-out or muted appearance.

Open the chat with the blocked person.

Scroll down and look for the red Unblock button. Tap it.

Tap on their name at the top of the screen to open their profile.

The chat will immediately become active again, allowing you to type new messages. If you blocked someone and then deleted the entire chat, finding them might seem tricky. Here’s how:

That’s it. The person is now unblocked, and your chat history will reappear. If you still have a record of your old conversation with the blocked user, this method is even faster.
