Telegram is closing out 2021 with a bang! The popular messaging app has recently rolled out a series of exciting new features for both Android and iOS users.
One of the notable additions to the app is the introduction of “Reactions”. This feature allows users to express their reactions to messages by selecting from a range of emojis. Similar to Facebook Messenger, users can press and hold on iOS devices or tap once on Android to access the reaction emoji picker.
Another interesting feature is the ability to double-tap a message to send a quick thumbs-up reaction. Users also have the option to customize their default double-tap reaction in the app’s settings. Reactions are automatically enabled in private chats, while in groups and channels, administrators have the authority to turn them on or off and choose which reaction emojis are available.
In addition, Telegram has introduced the “Spoiler” formatting option, which allows users to hide spoilers in their messages. By selecting the spoiler-infested part of the message and marking it as a spoiler, the text will be hidden in the chat, chat list, and notifications. To view the hidden text, simply tap on the spoiler.
Furthermore, a new translate button has been added to the context menu, enabling users to translate messages on all Android devices and iOS 15+ on Apple devices. The available languages for translation depend on the user’s phone software.
Telegram users can now customize the QR code for their profile or someone else’s profile by choosing their preferred colors and patterns. The update also includes redesigned context menus with animated icons for macOS users.
Lastly, interactive versions of certain emojis, such as the snowflake, have been introduced. Sending these emojis in 1-on-1 chats will trigger interactive effects, such as virtual snow falling on the screen.
With these new updates, Telegram aims to enhance the user experience and provide a more interactive and engaging messaging platform. Download the latest version of Telegram to enjoy these exciting features.
