How to add a bot to a Telegram Group?

I've been trying to add a bot to my Telegram group in Android Device but I am not able to do so. I tried @bot_name, /bot_name, but it doesn't work.

Is it possible to add a bot to the group or should I create a new bot using Telegram API (not bot API) so that I can add the contact number to the group?

Edit: now there is yet an easier way to do this - when creating your group, just mention the full bot name (eg. @UniversalAgent1Bot) and it will list it as you type. Then you can just tap on it to add it.

Old answer:

1. Create a new group from the menu. Don't add any bots yet
2. Find the bot (for instance you can go to Contacts and search for it)
3. Tap to open
4. Tap the bot name on the top bar. Your page becomes like this:
5. Now, tap the triple ... and you will get the Add to Group button:
6. Now select your group and add the bot - and confirm the addition
