Telegram’s latest update transforms the user experience with vibrant calls, a visually stunning Thanos Snap Effect for deleted messages, and a major Bot upgrade catering to its vast user base of over 800 million monthly active users.

Notable improvements in the calling feature empower users to engage in conversations, activate cameras, and share screens, all while ensuring the security of end-to-end encryption. This upgrade is seamlessly integrated across all platforms, enhancing accessibility for all users.

The calling interface undergoes a redesign, introducing new animations and adaptive backgrounds reflecting the call’s status, be it ringing, active, or concluded.

Telegram recently introduced an energy-efficient Thanos Snap Effect that adds an extra layer of visual delight to the messaging experience when a message is deleted.

Addressing bugs and interface glitches, Telegram emphasizes its commitment to delivering a seamless user experience.

An energy-efficient Thanos Snap Effect brings a visually delightful touch to message deletion, available on both iOS and Android platforms. Building on the experimental vapourize animation introduced last month on iOS, this feature adds flair to the messaging experience.

Telegram’s free and versatile bot platform empowers developers to integrate diverse services seamlessly. From simple chatbots to robust mini-apps capable of replacing entire websites, the bot platform enhances the platform’s functionality.

Significant milestones in the Bot Platform evolution include enhanced capabilities for bots to respond to messages, monitor reactions, handle quotes and links, and contribute replies across various chats or topics. Bots can now retrieve information about giveaways and boosts in channels where they hold administrative roles, marking a milestone in Telegram’s continuous evolution.
