Delete any new Telegram message that contains a document or media after 7 days
Say goodbye to cluttered chats. Make your group or channel instantly smarter by auto-removing media and docs after a week—so you never have to think about it again.
Managing busy Telegram groups or channels can quickly become chaotic when they fill up with documents, images, and multimedia messages. Manually tracking and clearing out these files after a certain time is tedious—and if you forget, your group risks becoming cluttered and hard to navigate. Not automating this process means wasted hours cleaning up, increased risk of sensitive files lingering longer than intended, and possible storage issues, all while your members struggle to find what matters most.
This Botize formula ensures your Telegram stays tidy without lifting a finger. Whenever someone shares a document or multimedia message, the automation sets a timer—for example, seven days—and then automatically deletes the message after that period. It's entirely up to you: adjust the deletion window to any timeframe that fits your moderation policy or privacy needs. The transformation is instant: your Telegram remains organized, important threads stay visible, and no one has to play janitor. Members see a professionally managed group, boosting trust and participation.
Ready to clear the clutter for good? Follow the simple step-by-step to set up this formula in Botize, or use the pre-built configuration to get started right away. Customize the frequency, types of files, or filter rules as needed. Take back your time, keep your group fresh, and let Botize handle the cleanup—so you can focus on what really matters!
