Watcher chat and channel bot
In short
Watcher has something its rivals lack: a demo that shows what you'll get before you connect anything. That's fairer than asking for account access right away. The feature itself is still questionable, since your contact has no clue their edits and deletions are being kept.
About the bot
Here's what it does. When someone in a chat erases a message, you keep it. When they edit one, Watcher puts the two versions side by side. Timed photos and videos don't disappear either.
There are more commands than similar services offer: connect, a profile with your status, the demo, Premium, inviting a friend and a separate scheme for people who want to promote the bot. We'd start with the demo, because it shows what you get before you hand over access.
Connecting means an outside service gains access to your private chats, and the bot runs nonstop, even while you're offline. The profile doesn't give the Premium price or how it compares with the free mode; those numbers appear only inside the bot.
And the part people tend to skip. Messages get deleted or edited so the sender can take something back, and disappearing media is sent so it won't be kept. Your contact never agreed to a copy. Telegram may consider bots like this a rules violation, and your account is what gets hit.
You'll like it if
- you want to see a demo before letting a bot into your account
- seeing edits as before and after matters to you
- you need it to work while your phone is off
Skip it if
- you don't want an outsider seeing your conversations
- keeping what wasn't meant for you feels unfair
