When the kiosk (RaspberryPi) is switched off in the evening, and pictures are sent to the kiosk that same evening. The pictures don't get pickud up the next day when the kiosk (RaspberryPi) is switched on again.

Normally Telegram sends the pictures through when the bot connects again. At least this used to be the case.
Has it always been like that for you ? The bot autostarts, and after start again receives new pics?

You are sure not two bots are active, so telegram is sending it somewhere, just not the bot that is down at that time ?

When the bot connects again, Only the pictures from that day are picked up. Not the ones from the previous day, for example

Day 1
17:00 bot is functional and picks up pictures
22:00 bot is switched OFF
22:05 picture A sent in Telegram
DAY2
07:00 picture B sent in Telegram
08:00 bot is switched ON
08:00 bot picks-up picture B but NOT picture A

But from your answer I can assume the problem is at telegram and not in the bot?

I never tested with waiting so long. You receive picture B while bot was off, so this could be how telegram functions, if too long ago, purge it.
Is it needed to switch off the raspberry for you? It is low energy device. Switching off monitor/tv is the important one.

Unfortunately we can't get grandma to understand to leave the raspberry pi on all the time.
But we'll try a workaround by defining timeframes together with her. and a time-programmable power-adapter
