  • The process is somewhat slow if you have thousands and thousands of messages. According to my tests, I can estimate more less 5-6 minutes for 10000 messages. But this depends on your connection and in Telegram's rules for priority and flood regulation mostly. I couldn't speed it any more (see the FAQ)

  • Do this preferably at night. Or at least in a timeframe when both you and your partner don't need your account. Smallers chats are not so problematic, but, using Telegram Chat Importer with big conversations will likely trigger Telegram's Flood limits. (See the FAQ)

  • Thus, that's why you should import a chat during a timeframe when you don't use Telegram that much. You can chat, participate and read groups without any issues, but it will be somewhat annoying to use if Telegram Chat Importer is working and triggering some limits on Telegram's servers

  • Also, you won't be able to talk with your partner while Telegram Chat Importer is working. It is really difficult to establish a conversation if there are a lot of messages popping up all the time, believe me!

  • For the sake of your health, disable, both you and your partner, the notifications between you. You don't want your phone to be ringing every second. It's really disturbing :(.

Each of you go to your Telegram's profile, and disable notifications. You can activate them afterwards:
