Telegram is worse than WhatsApp in terms of security. It doesn’t even use audited encryption by default.

Whatsapp is a closed source app. You can't audit it.

And telegram has a closed source server, so having an open client doesn't really matter.

Still better than Whatsapp. Whatsapp doesn't even have an open client.
