Miscellaneous / / September 25, 2023
Already available to everyone - please update.
Telegram received another update that added several new features and security improvements. That's what has changed.
Stories from channels
Users can now give their favorite channels the ability to post stories. All Telegram Premium subscribers will receive one vote, which they can give to one channel. The more votes, the more stories can be published daily: 1 vote adds 1 story to the limit.
To collect votes, channels can use links in the t format.me/example? boost. Administrators will be able to find vote statistics and a link to the collection in the “More” → “Statistics” → “Votes” section. It will also display how many votes are left until the next level.
Reaction stickers and music in stories
Story authors can now add up to 5 reaction stickers. Viewers can tap one of the stickers, and the number of taps will be displayed under each emoji. Premium subscribers will also have access to all emoji from the original sets. Also, you can now load an audio track from the device’s memory into the history.
View files once
Self-destructing files have been available in the messenger for a long time, but now you can allow photos or videos to be viewed only once. You can also configure the deletion to occur 30 seconds after opening.
New login notifications
Every time you log in from a new device, Telegram will send a notification to all gadgets from which you previously logged in. They will now appear above the chat list to make them easier to spot.
