How to restore pinned message in Telegram super group?

Question

I've mistakenly closed the pinned message for a super group on Telegram I am not an admin of. Is there an easy way to restore the pinned message without the admin having to re-pin?

Seems like this should be easy to do but I can't seem to.

Solution

Yeah, looks like there is one. You have to

1 - Leave the group 2 - Uninstall Telegram from your phone 3 - Reinstall i.e. download Telegram again from store 4 - Re-join the group

It did work just fine for several of us booth on iphone as well as on android. Enjoy

I've read the admin can unpin and pin it again for it to appear to everyone that closed it. It's worth an issue/feature request on Telegram, however.

Bummer, I was hoping for an in-app solution to avoid re-install but that works, thanks for confirming.
