Telegram probably sits right at the top when it comes to having the most features on a mobile chatting app. One key aspect that separates it from other chat apps is the functionality to use bots. Telegram gives full freedom to its users to add bots within their chats that allow them to get more things done, which would otherwise require separate tools or apps. In this article, we go through some of the best bots you can use in Telegram groups to get the most out of the app.

Best Telegram bots for groups in 2023
Gamee
Starting the list with a fun bot, Gamee adds casual and interactive games to a Telegram group that allows members to compete against each other in games like Basketball, F1 Racer, Groovy Ski, and many more across a dozen of categories. The bot also saves the players’ key stats such as high scores, benchmarks, and positions from the games they play in the group. Apart from that, users can also play these nifty little games in their own personal chat.
AI anime images
This bot magically converts any image into an anime-like graphic while retaining the human postures and slightly altering the background to go in line with the main subject. To get started, simply send an image to the bot and within the next couple of seconds it’ll present you with AI-generated art that you can share on your social media profiles. At times, the bot may take some time to process during heavy traffic but will ultimately get the job done sooner or later. After adding the bot to a group, users will have to send a command along with an image to get processed results in return.
Spotybot
Spotybot allows group members to jam with each other on their favourite songs streamed directly from Spotify. But in order to make the bot work, one of the members from the group has to privately configure the bot by logging in with their Spotify account. Once Spotybot is added to a group, members can search for any song or artist, and the bot will return with an audio clip along with a direct link to Spotify.
Combot
Check out this bot if you are managing a large group with hundreds of members on Telegram. Combot provides the admins with various moderation tools and filters to prevent the group members from flooding the chat with spammy and irrelevant messages. The bot also has a trigger system in place that will automatically delete unwanted notifications and images to maintain decorum in the group.
RemindMegaBot
As the name would suggest, RemindMegaBot adds the functionality of setting reminders inside of a group chat as well as in a private chat. All you have to do is use this bot on Telegram is define their specific time zone. Once that is done, add the bot to a group and from thereon members can set reminders in their words such as asking the bot to “Have a get together on Saturday at 7 PM” or “Renew YouTube Premium family subscription on 25th of every month”.
Functions Robot
Functions Robot comes with an array of nifty and useful tools mostly found on websites and apps. With this bot, Telegram group members can gain access to features such as URL shortener, password generator, translator, text-to-voice converter, logo searcher, and QR code generator within a chat itself. One would mostly use these tools privately, but it can be used for groups which involve lots of interaction among team members through Telegram.
Movies Tracker Bot
There can be times when group members seek movie recommendations from one another. The Movies Tracker Bot makes things easy by providing a movie’s description straight from IMDb into the chat. This way, members of the group get a quick glimpse of the movie without leaving Telegram. A must-have bot, if you’re a movie buff.
VID
While this is not a bot, it can come in really handy when you want to quickly send a YouTube video without leaving Telegram. Simply type in @VID (video name) and it will suggest you various videos from YouTube along with their thumbnails. So next time you want to share a video with your friends, go ahead and use this simple function.
