Auto-Record Your Favorite Tango Creators with a Telegram Bot

By TangoRec Editorial · · 2 min read

TL;DR

TangoRec is a Telegram bot that auto-records the Tango creators you follow. Add a creator with /watch, and every time they go live the bot records the full stream in the cloud and sends you the MP4 - no app open, no PC, no timing it yourself.

The hardest part of keeping Tango lives is timing. Creators go live whenever they want - early morning, late night, across time zones - and the broadcast is gone the moment it ends. Auto-recording solves this by watching for you. Here is how it works with TangoRec.

What "auto-record" means

Instead of you opening the app to catch a live, you tell a bot which creators to follow once. From then on, whenever any of those creators goes live, the bot records the entire broadcast automatically and delivers it to you. You never have to be watching.

Setting it up (about 30 seconds)

  1. Open @tangorec_live_bot in Telegram
  2. Send /watch username for each Tango creator you want to follow
  3. Done - the bot now records their lives automatically

When a watched creator goes live, TangoRec captures the stream from the start in the cloud and sends you a clean MP4 in Telegram when it ends.

Why a Telegram bot is the right tool

  • Always on. The bot runs server-side, so it catches lives while your phone is off and you are asleep.
  • From the start. Auto-detection means the recording begins when the live begins - no missed openings.
  • Clean files. No screen glare, notifications, or UI overlays; just the broadcast as an MP4.
  • In a place you already use. Recordings land in Telegram, ready to watch, forward, or download.
  • Manage your list anytime. Add or remove creators with simple commands.

Managing your watchlist

  • /watch username - start auto-recording a creator.
  • Remove creators you no longer follow to keep your list focused.
  • Free accounts watch a couple of creators; paid tiers raise the limit (see the pricing page).

Beyond auto-recording: the archive

If a creator's live was already recorded, you may not need to wait for the next one - the public TangoRec archive lets you browse and re-watch past lives that were captured.
