To start, Telegram has redesigned the app’s network usage tool. At the same time, there are new interactive versions of a handful of emoji, and the company has released 10 new custom emoji packs.Ī couple of quality-of-life improvements make it easier to manage Telegram’s footprint on your device. And speaking of stickers and emoji, Telegram has made it easier to sort through the dizzying number of options the app offers by organizing them into categories. Best of all, it’s available to everyone, not just Premium users. In addition to using this feature for yourself, you can set or suggest profile pictures for your contacts. Separately, the update adds a tool for turning stickers and emoji into profile pictures. If you want to try Premium, Telegram has also introduced a new annual payment option that allows you to save up to 40 percent on the price of the service if you commit to a full year. Join a channel in the city you plan to visit to see the events and spots locals are talking about. As you can see from the GIF Telegram shared, this could be handy when planning a trip. If you’re a Premium subscriber, you’ll also have access to this feature when engaging with groups and channels. Tap it to translate their message in real time. The next time someone messages you in a language other than your default language, you’ll see a translate bar at the top of the interface. With its first update of 2023, Telegram is making it easier to communicate with people who might speak a different language than you.
