Situatie
Telegram has an app-based passcode lock system. This passcode lock needs to be set up on each device individually. The passcode isn’t synced between your devices, and it isn’t linked to your Telegram account. If you forget the passcode, you’ll need to delete and reinstall the Telegram app.
You’ll get all your Telegram chats back if this happens, but you will lose out on all the Secret Chats. The messages are deleted, as they aren’t synced using Telegram’s servers and are instead stored locally on the device.

You can protect your Telegram app using a passcode and fingerprint on Android. To set it up, open the Telegram app on your Android smartphone, then tap the three-line menu button found in the top-left corner.
Here, choose the “Settings” option.
Now, select “Privacy & Security.”
From the “Security” section, tap “Passcode Lock.”
Next, create a four-number numeric passcode. Then, enter it again to save the passcode.
The passcode is now active.
You will now see that the “Unlock with Fingerprint” feature is enabled by default. You can disable it if you don’t want to unlock using your fingerprint. By default, Telegram only auto-locks after one hour. You can tap the “Auto-lock” option to change the time between 1 minute to 45 hours.
From here, you can also disable the feature if you want. Once you’re done, tap the “Done” button to save it.
If you want to lock your Telegram app manually, tap the lock icon from the “Chats” screen.
Now, when you open the Telegram app again, you will first see the option to unlock the app using your fingerprint.
You can exit this screen and use the passcode instead if you like.
