README.md

How to delete all your Telegram contacts at once?

1. Go to https://web.telegram.org and sign in if you're not already signed in.
2. On the top-left, click on the hamburger icon to show the dropdown menu, and choose "Contacts" from the list.
3. Choose "Edit".
4. Open the Developer Console of your browser (preferably Chrome or Firefox). On Chrome, that is Ctrl + Shift + J.
5. Run the following JS snippet:

var x = document.getElementsByClassName('contacts_modal_contact')
for (i=0; i<x.length; i++) {
    x[i].click();
}

6. It selects all your contacts. Click on the "Delete" button.

Hey, this was great I thought but I realized that they somehow still have access to my contacts, even newer contacts! I removed all sessions and then logged in again with telegram web and deleted all contacts, I still get a notification when one of my contacts joins telegram - and they have this extremely annoying bug where I can't even turn these notifications off, and I have a LOT of contacts...

Thanks This was helpful, how do leave the group?

@pavanghai That should be similar.

This action below to delete all contacts on telegram:

1. On the top-left, click on the hamburger icon to show the dropdown menu, and choose "Contacts" from the list.
2. Run this code:

var x = document.getElementsByClassName('contacts_modal_contact')
setInterval(() => {
  document.getElementsByClassName('md_modal_action')[1].click()
  for (i=0; i<x.length; i++) {
      x[i].click();
  }
  document.getElementsByClassName('btn btn-md btn-md-danger')[0].click()
}, 1000)

what about leaving multiple group?
