Telegram Device Type Identification Business Edition: Guide to Precision Marketing and User Experience Optimization

Have you ever encountered this situation? When conducting commercial promotions on Telegram, we found that users with different devices responded to messages in very different ways, but we were unable to accurately identify their device types to optimize delivery strategies. When our team serves cross-border e-commerce customers, we often receive this kind of feedback - the click-through rate of Android users is 23% lower than that of iOS, but the root cause may just be message format compatibility issues. This is a typical operational search requirement.
