@junction_bot 🤖 Automatic Forwarding of Messages 🌐 junctionbot.io 👨🏻💻 @junction_support_bot
Friends, Junction Bro is back online! 👋😎👍
Today, I'll tell you about a useful feature that our admin friends particularly appreciate. It helps control the content you forward. I'm talking about the review mode.
Review mode allows you to manually edit posts from the source before publishing them in the destination channel, and also to manually approve posts for forwarding or skip them. You can enable it through Menu → Forwarding Settings → Select source and destination → Review Mode or by using the command /settingchannel source_link review on.
When review mode is enabled, for each new post in the source, the connected account will send a copy of the post to a special bot @Junction_Review_Bot. Below this post, you'll find information about the source and destination, and buttons "Publish" and "Skip". You can edit the post directly in the chat with @Junction_Review_Bot and publish it to the destination by clicking "Publish".
You can also send posts for approval to a service group, which is helpful for teamwork and sometimes just more convenient. To do this, use the setting Menu → Forwarding Settings → Select source and destination → Review Group.
This feature is especially useful for administrators of groups and channels who want to control the quality of content and edit it manually before it is published. Share in the comments what tasks you solve using the review mode.
☀️ Friends,
The first update of this spring. And what an update! We haven't been this excited since we added ChatGPT integration... Junction Bot can now work with Telegram folders! Just select the folder itself as the source, no need to add a forwarding rule to each channel. And, accordingly, you can keep one set of settings for the whole folder, it will be applied to every member of it.
All this is still in testing mode, you know😅.... For more details, read our tried and true documentation.
Isn't it a dream? Test it, send us feedback and enjoy using it!

Hey, buddy, Junction Bro here! 👋😎
Have you ever thought about boosting your forwarding system with AI? Imagine how it could change the game. Let's dive in. We've integrated the ability to use ChatGPT so you can automate cool stuff without leaving Telegram. How about translating texts, analyzing and summarizing large volumes of information, or even creating "smart" filters for content? All of this is now possible! Check it out:
1. Prompt for automatic translation:
Translate the following text into German: ${body}If the text mentions a deal's success probability of 90% or higher, send it to me unchanged. Otherwise, reply 'copying not required'. ${body}Summarize the following text and present the key theses as a numbered list: ${body}
Hey crew, Junction Bro here! 👋😎🔎
Today's post is for those facing unruly filter behavior. Here's what to do when they stop playing by your rules:
1. Dive into Settings → Click on Menu → Forwarding Settings → Select source and destination → Click on Explain-report. You've got a VIP pass to the filter party in your pocket.
2. Get details on every message — With Explain mode activated, you'll know exactly which filters triggered and why. All the details right at your fingertips!
3. A separate channel for reports? Bingo! — Create a channel, enable Explain there, and toss in messages for analysis. It's like having your own private detective in the world of filters.
A real-life story: How Eser wrestled with the "Affiliate Reward: 5%" filter. It stubbornly refused to work correctly. After some mystical rituals, a visit to regex101, and a chat with support, he realized the issue wasn't complexity, but precision in setting. The original message contained hidden formatting only revealed in the report. Ultimately, a simple tweak to the filter fixed the issue, and the desired messages flowed like a river.
Remember, filters are case-sensitive. If things go awry, Explain mode can be your lifesaver, sparing you loads of time and nerves.
Got your own filter battle stories or a cool life hack? Share in the comments, let's make our collective journey more enjoyable and simpler!
Friends, a couple of new features have been added with the latest update:
- Message history can now be copied from private chats with other users or bots as well.
- It is now possible to create a forwarding rule from a private chat to the same private chat. In combination with ChatGPT on such a forwarding rule this can be used as an autoresponder.
Have a great weekend!

Hello, Junction Bro here! 👋😎
You know, I have many entertaining stories to share. But even the most vivid retelling can't replace the kind words and life wisdom shared by our Bro's friends. My long-time friend Nikolai writes:
Hello everyone! I want to share my experience in creating feeds of my favorite channels. I've been on Telegram for about two years. During this time, I accumulated over 70 channels on various topics. Reading and managing them became difficult. I first tried using the system folders - Telegram offers ten for free. I organized them by topics. It was better than before, but there still was no unified feed - each channel was separate. While browsing reviews of useful bots, I stumbled upon a description of the Junction Bot. Tried the demo version - it works. Easy to set up. I bought a subscription. Next:
1. I launched the bot in a separate folder, which I named 'MY FEEDS'.
2. I created several service group chats, each named by topic (news, culture, analytics, etc.), and even put effort into setting avatars.
3. In each chat, I subscribed to the relevant channels by topic. Result: each chat got its own feed, using filters to manage incoming messages. I'm extremely pleased... 😇👍
Hello, Bro on the line. 👋😎📰
In our last conversation, you were surprised, wondering why Fred's business matters and what do I care about 600 channels in his network? How does it relate to me?
My answer is this: whoever you are on Telegram, a prominent admin or an ordinary reader, alone you are nothing against the power of large numbers. Think about it: every day 1,700,000 public channels and chats produce 40,000,000 new publications and messages. And this number has doubled in a year! “Well, that’s for everyone, we’ve grown too,” you might say. But no, the average number of channels each user is subscribed to is also growing. If in 2021 only every third person was subscribed to more than 25 channels, now half are! And every fourth person is subscribed to more than 50 channels. Yes, today even a simple attempt to organize your own subscriptions becomes a challenge as big as managing a huge network.
This is exactly what I'm talking about, friend — in this information storm, we all are in the same boat. But whatever happens, Junction Bro has a lifebuoy for everyone. Even on the basic plan for just a euro, Junction Bot will help tame up to 100 channels, combining them into one feed and clearing all unnecessary content. You can try it right now, you get control over a feed of seven channels from me for free. And for the bravest heroes of Telegram, Bro has a special tool: direct connection. On this plan, there are no limits on the number of subscriptions and redirects, nor on the types of sources and content. With these tools, you can control information flows, filter them, and direct them along any routes you need.
Junction Bro has an instrument for everyone, regardless of the scale of their business. But hey, how do you cope with this? Share, how many channels are you subscribed to and how many do you really read?
Junction Bro on the line, friend! 👋😎📞
You've always known — whoever controls information, controls the world. And one day you woke up realizing that you had long lost this power. The desire to reclaim it brought you to Telegram. Here, you met Junction Bro and his friends. We are here for one purpose: to give everyone back the ability to manage information, not to be overwhelmed by it. Indeed, today in Junction Bot our friends already read news in a feed without any distractions. And many have found a way to extract from the endless streams of information exactly what helps in making the right decisions. 🌀👑🌍
But sometimes, friend, you find yourself at the center of the cyclone, and then it's no time for jokes. Listen to the story of my old buddy Fred:
Well, we have a pretty large network of channels, themed 'vacancies,' about 600 of them.
Indeed, how to manage such an enterprise is a great mystery, but the master shared with his Bro friends his main secret:
A lot is tied to Junction Bot.
Fred's method involves building a hierarchy of channels based on a regional principle: from cities to regions and the entire country. With the help of Junction Bot, he created a system of cascading redirections, allowing content to be spread through this multi-dimensional network.
I can't imagine how one could manually post an ad in 600 channels.
And not just mass posting, but targeting specific regions or cities. The information reaches the local audience — a challenging task for Telegram.
For networkers, your bot is a huge salvation, indeed!
🌚💸🌝
Fred's story is a vivid example of how Junction Bot and business acumen help in managing the most complex and large-scale projects. I have plenty more examples like this. And know — I am always ready to be a guide in your informational adventures. Alright, enough stories from me. You surely have a couple or more worthy stories of your own for Bro and his friends. Share, how do you manage to stay afloat in the turbulent waters of Telegram? Does Junction Bot helps? 🌬🧘🌊"
⚙️ Friends, a pretty little update!
Now you can enable/disable/delete forwarding rules via a web-interface.
Cheers!
☃️ Friends, some cozy winter news:
- We've added the ability to do reviews in a group chat. Now it is even more convenient to work on content together with colleagues!
- We have also added translation of the bot into several other languages. You can see the available languages with the /language command. The translation is automatic, so if you understand English or Russian, we advise you to stick to one of these languages.
- Speaking about translations, we'll use this chance to remind you, that you can automatically translate forwarded content (and do other crazy stuff) using our ChatGPT integration.
☀️ Friends, problems on hosting are solved, the bot runs in normal mode. Direct connections work as usual. Messages to standard accounts will start coming within a couple of hours.

Friends, it seems that the problem on the Telegram side is solved. You can turn on disabled redirects back with the command /enableall

Friends, the bot was upgraded to the latest Telegram API version and now supports quotes and other new features. As the bots are not allowed to use them directly yet, you will see them only if you are using delivery on behalf of your account.
Enjoy!
🚅 Friends, we are happy to share with you that standard accounts are stable again. Currently, maximum delays are no more than a few hours. We hope to eventually reduce the delays even more.
Also, with the command /status you can now see the maximum estimated delay for standard accounts. It's calculated in real-time using the actual system benchmarks.
Although we are doing our best to keep standard accounts stable, please remember, that the only way to have the maximum performance is to use a direct connection.
🚀 Friends, we are glad to present you an important update! We have started to move the most difficult to learn part - settings management - to the new bot interface. Our goal is to make bot management as intuitive as possible and not requiring text commands. We are very inspired by the possibilities that new features of Telegram open up for this.
The interface is accessible by clicking the Menu button in the bottom bar. Filter management, as well as bulk settings management, are next in line.
Your ideas and suggestions are welcome!
Junction Bro here! 👋😎📝
The new feature of Junction Bot, forwarding from folders, is the perfect solution for those who value order and efficiency when working with Telegram. However, when consolidating information streams, it's often important to maintain source attribution. I'll tell you about two ways to indicate the author when forwarding in Junction Bot.
1. "Message Author" Setting
Where to find: Menu → Forwarding Settings → Select Source and Destination → Author
You can choose how the author's name will be displayed, and the bot will make it a link to the author's profile.
2. "Delivery Mode" Setting
Where to find: Menu → Forwarding Settings → Select Source and Destination → Delivery Mode → forward_client.
This method allows the use of Telegram's standard message forwarding function, preserving information about the original message's author.
These features are designed to assist content curators in preserving the original author's credit, and enable communities to easily trace and reference sources during discussions.
Which of these settings do you use more often in your projects? Share in the comments!
Bro's back in touch, buddy! 👋😎
Today, I want to share a convenient way to manage your subscriptions in Junction Bot for those using the Standard plan. If you haven't used this lifehack yet, you're definitely missing out! Subscriptions in Junction Bot are essentially forwarding to the bot. This means you can easily manage them right from the web menu using "forwarding settings".
What's the convenience? All your subscriptions are displayed in the web application, simplifying their review and management. Use the search feature to save your time from scrolling through the entire list. Change settings or unsubscribe from channels in just a few clicks!
You know, the Bro team is always striving to make Junction Bot even more useful and functional. Tell us, what features are you missing most in the web application? What would make your experience with Junction Bot even more enjoyable and efficient? Share your ideas and suggestions in the comments!
Buddy, Junction Bro here! 👋😎🗓
A while back, we introduced a few features as an experiment. Back then, we thought they were just cool little extras. I'm talking about the forwarding parameters: Delay, Schedule, and Message Rate.
Turns out, our admin friends saw great potential in these little tricks for solving a crucial admin task: automated content posting! Let me explain the idea: it might be much more convenient to fill your private storage-group with ready content and let the bot publish according to media plan than to manually load up scheduled posts each time. And think of the possibilities for teamwork!
So, we've seriously started thinking about creating a full-fledged scheduler as part of Junction Bot. It's a promising idea, and our developers have already rolled up their sleeves.
But what's this endeavor without your input! What features would you like to see in our wonder auto-poster? Share your ideas, and together we'll create the scheduler of our dreams!
Hey, Junction Bro here! 👋😎
Modern life has turned into an endless techno festival. Lights flicker everywhere, and the digital beep and crackle come from every little household item. For now, it's mostly notifications, but the most advanced gear has already started talking. Wherever you look — innovations are blooming wildly.
It's captivating... until the air of novelty becomes too heavy. Indeed, life has never been so complicated as in this era of "simplicity and convenience." Our attention flutters like a fish in an aquarium. We've lost our former receptiveness. For many, information overload is the "new normal."
So how do we mitigate the negative effects of the gadget dictatorship? Quit social media? Swap smartphones for button phones? Move out of the city and settle in a hut? No, not necessarily (though for some, these options might work perfectly). Bro knows the answer: the problem isn't technology itself, but how we use it.
Digital minimalism changes the approach to the subject. The concept was popularized by author Cal Newport in his book of the same name. Here are the two main points:
Intentionality and mindfulness. Ask yourself: when you open this app, are you doing it consciously? Is there a specific purpose to the launch? Struggling with the answer? Uninstall it without further hesitation.
Quality over quantity. It doesn't matter how many apps your phone can run at once, how many subscriptions are in your Telegram. How many of them truly enhance your life? Admit it, most just weigh you down. Give preference to what genuinely brings something useful into your life. And don't be afraid to discard the excess, happiness isn't in the quantity.
These principles may seem trivial, but try to adhere to them for just a week and see how your world clears up. I'll share more practical tips on digital hygiene from Dr. Newport with you, but for now, lay it on me — how do you manage to keep your sanity in our era of information deluge?
Junction Bro is here! 🫵😎
You already know that in the world of turbulent information flows, maintaining control over our time and attention is a real science. But how can we master it?

Hey there, Junction Bro here! 👋😎
Every great story begins with a story of a person. Yes, today Junction Bot is one of the most popular and advanced services in its niche, but back in 2016, it started as just a small pet-project by developer Andrey. When a new feature - channels - appeared in his favorite messenger, he quickly appreciated all its advantages but also faced the same problem as most of you – too many channels of interest. Subscription management simply became uncontrollable. Being a staunch proponent of optimizing all aspects of life, Andrey didn't give up in the face of difficulty and created the first version of the bot. It collected content from several channels into one feed, preliminarily filtering out unnecessary information.
After a year of development and using the bot himself, our hero realized: this was not just a convenient utility, it was a real gem. Junction Bot indeed helped to control the flow of information. And then the decision was made: it was time to share his creation with the world. In 2017, the first public version was released, which immediately found its fans. From the very beginning of this phase, Andrey bet on feedback from users. It became the compass that guided the project in the right direction. Every new feature, every improvement was the result of your suggestions and ideas, friends.
Today, Junction Bot helps more than 100,000 users monthly. Alongside another brainchild of the team grows - Lectum, a subscription management bot for admins of paid channels. Now, the developers are looking to the future, wondering if they can create something even greater. They invite all friends of Junction Bro to join them in this quest for answers. Share your stories about how you use Junction Bot, what features you like, and what more you would like to see. Your feedback is the fuel for our growth and development.
Friends, a couple of news:
- We've moved to a new server. Now everything should work even faster! Remember that if you have delays on the DC, you can remove them with the /support command.
- Finally, we have added the ability to manage subscription settings (news feed) in the web app, where forwarding settings are now. Including settings of all service channels!
Enjoy!

Hello, friend, Junction Bro here! 👋😎🗝
Today, I'm excited to announce the relaunch of our channel. We'll be transforming it into an extensive knowledge base about Junction Bot: from step-by-step guides for beginners to cunning tricks and unusual usage scenarios for pros. 🐣📚👨🔧
Our team has amassed a wealth of knowledge and we can't wait to share it with you, but we're equally eager to hear your voice — comments are now open for opinions and experiences. Feedback helps us grow! 🌱💬🪴
There's a lot more to come, so subscribe to stay tuned!
❄️ Friends, Merry Christmas!
- In the latest release we have added schedule setting, scheduling of delayed publication. It works similarly to delay: you specify the number of seconds to delay publication. Only, unlike delay, it puts the message into the internal Telegram scheduler, where you can edit or delete it. Therefore, it works only for publishing in copy_client mode - publishing on behalf of a connected account. Also, this setting doesn't have any limit on the maximum delay.
If you need more sophisticated scheduling settings - please let us know!
- We've added the ability to put a pro account on freeze. If you turn the freeze on, after the current payment period expires, all your pro services, such as direct connection, will be suspended, even if you have enough money in your balance to renew. When you turn the freeze off, all services will automatically renew. It's now easier to use bonuses when paying for several months, even if you're not sure you're going to use the bot all that time without interruption.
Enjoy!
Friends, there is now an option to add a publish date of an original post to a resulting post. See the setting 'header'.

🔥 Friends, this is huge! We're super excited to share with you a new feature of the bot: integration with OpenAI ChatGPT.
Finally, without leaving the bot, you can do translations, analyze and summarize long texts, do smart filtering, modify numbers in text according to specific criteria, and much more. The limits of what's possible are only bounded by our imagination.
As always - we're eager for your feedback!
Enjoy!
Friends, mass failures are being registered in Telegram today. The platform suddenly gives the error of lack of rights when sending to some channels and groups. Therefore, the bot temporarily disables the corresponding redirects.
The /enableall command should enable your forwarding rules back. But until the problem on Telegram itself is solved, it won't help. Hopefully, it will be fixed soon.
If you have a direct connection, switching to sending on behalf of your account will solve the issue.
You can follow the news on our channel and in the support chat.
🎬 Friends, we are happy to introduce support for Stories!
You can enable the copying of stories by setting story message. For now, only the option available is to pass stories as new messages. Keep in mind, for new forwarding rules the setting is enabled by default. The setting works only for direct connections.
In case of any problems - write to support! Enjoy!
Friends, unfortunately Telegram constantly blocks our service accounts associated with the standard tariff. Therefore, on the standard tariff some channels can be in the "connecting" state for a long time and work with a delay of up to 12 hours. It's a new normal, we do not know when the delay will be reduced back.
Direct connections are not affected in any way and work without delays.
🤖 Friends, we've fixed the incorrect copying of thumbnails for some media files. Let us know if you still experience something strange related to the thumbnails!
