Aaand... if you believe Telegram is much more secure, then...
Remember the man and company behind it is Russian. And it got all successful all of a sudden, for no real or apparent reason over its competitors. (Signal, I'm talking to you).
But, you cry - the Russians tried to get TG banned because there's no backdoor?
Yeah, well, they would say that wouldn't they.

How many people in Russia started using it after that story? (Clue: lots).
Change your phone and if you have not backed up WA data, it disappears. Do the same with TG and oh look, it all comes back again. Which means your chats, pics, etc were always lurking somewhere in the cloud.
Personally, I think all these things are very useful, and it is marvellous that they are free. But I do not really expect them to be totally secure.
