What mass story viewing is
Mass story viewing means your accounts watch the stories of people in a chosen audience, sometimes leaving a heart or a reaction. The story's owner sees your account in the viewer list, some get curious about who it is — and open the profile, where there's a link to your channel, bot or offer.
It's a soft way to get noticed: the account doesn't write to anyone or add anyone to chats. But nobody can promise results — visits depend on the audience and on what people find in your profile.
How it works
- You choose whose stories to watch: a list of usernames, a saved base, a past campaign or a chat.
- If you name a chat, the module collects people from it — those who posted, or members — up to 400 people per chat.
- Accounts take turns opening each person's stories and marking them as seen.
- Some stories get a heart or a reaction — one or the other, never both.
- The log shows whose stories were watched and from which account; the campaign can be repeated on the same base.
Default settings
| Setting | Default |
|---|---|
| Stories per person | all, but no more than 20 |
| Pause between profiles | 3–8 seconds |
| Don't revisit a person for | 20 hours |
| Heart on a story | on, 45 out of 100 stories |
| Reactions | off; if on — 25 out of 100 stories |
| Stop after errors in a row | 10 |
There's no per-account view cap by default — you can set one. The account's shared budget applies on top, see below.
What the person sees
The person whose story you watched sees your account in the viewer list — name and photo. That makes the profile what matters most: name, avatar and a bio with a link. With an empty profile, a view achieves nothing.
A heart or reaction stands out more than a plain view: it shows next to your name in the list. But it also annoys people faster — that's why reactions are off by default and hearts don't go on every story.
Where to get an audience
People who care about the topic respond most: members of topic chats, commenters on similar channels. You can collect them with GramClaude's parser, save them as a base, then pick that base in a mass viewing campaign.
Keep in mind that not everyone posts stories: part of any base will have no active stories, and there'll be nothing to watch.
Limits and safety
Views and hearts count toward the account's shared action budget, together with other modules. If the same account is also warming up or answering direct messages, mass viewing won't overspend it.
Bulk requests without pauses lead to FLOOD_WAIT — the module waits it out and stops on its own after 10 errors in a row. For how much Telegram allows and which limits are official, see the guide on Telegram limits.
How it differs from direct messages
Direct messaging writes to people — and that's what gets reported most: reports are what cause spam blocks. Mass viewing writes nothing, so there are no reports about messages. But Telegram sees an account's activity as a whole, and working too hard ends in the same restrictions as any other module. What a spam block looks like and how to check — in a separate guide.
