When replying to messages, you can quote a certain part of the source text - then when you move from a reply, the quoted text will be highlighted. To do this, you need to click on the message (or hold down if you have iOS), select the desired text and select “Quote”.
In addition, replies can now be sent to other chats - for example, to move the discussion to another group or channel. To do this, simply select “Reply in another chat” above the reply field to the message. When you click on the quoted text, the message will open in the chat in which it was published (if the user has access to it).
In addition, any part of your own message can now be formatted as a quote - for example, to highlight the main idea. The corresponding setting appears in the list of formatting options.
Setting up link previews
Now the user can customize the link preview: place it above or below the text of the message, change the size of the photo and select a link to preview if there are several of them in the message.
Custom color setting
Premium users can now choose an individual color or a combination of several shades. This color will be used for the user's name in all groups, as well as links sent to him and quotes from messages in replies. You can also choose a single-color emoji that will be displayed in the background of replies to user messages. Similar settings will be available to channels that have reached level 5 thanks to subscriber votes.
New in stories
Stories can now be rewinded or forwarded. To do this, you need to hold the screen and swipe your finger right or left.
Also added to the story is a flash for the front camera with the ability to adjust its brightness and hue.
New features are already available to all users: just update the messenger to the latest version.
