Detailed description:
The "PHONE_CODE_EXPIRED" error in Telegram indicates that the verification code sent via SMS or phone call has expired. This code is required to log in to your account and is an essential part of Telegram's security system. The Telegram API returns this error when a user attempts to enter an outdated code that is no longer valid.
Why the "PHONE_CODE_EXPIRED" error occurs:
1. The user entered the code too late, after its validity period ended.
2. An old code from a previous login attempt was used.
3. Telegram's security system automatically invalidated the code due to suspicious activity.
This error is commonly encountered when working with Telegram automation software, especially if login processes are delayed or handled in bulk. Since each code has a limited lifetime, it must be used immediately after being received.
Solution for the "PHONE_CODE_EXPIRED" error:
1. Request a new verification code. This can be done by requesting it again via SMS or phone call.
2. Enter the code immediately after receiving it to avoid expiration.
3. If you are using automation tools, ensure they process codes promptly and do not store them for too long.
The Telegram API deliberately limits the validity period of codes to prevent unauthorized access and strengthen account security. Requesting a new code is a normal part of the login process. By following these guidelines, you can avoid the "PHONE_CODE_EXPIRED" error and ensure stable access to your Telegram account.
