Telegram releases a vast array of new functions
Messaging software Telegram has released an exciting update for both Android and iOS versions with several bug fixes and creative improvements. This includes the introduction of stories for channels, the capability to include reaction stickers and personal music in stories, and the View Once option for self-destructing media. It now also lets you add audio files to stories.
Telegram has been working on a platform where third-party developers, from games to restaurants, can build mini apps to interact with users. In Telegram’s own words: “Developers can use JavaScript to create infinitely flexible interfaces that can be launched right inside Telegram — and can completely replace any website.”
To build out this super app platform, Telegram relies on a network of infrastructure partners both from the established tech world and the crypto space. Among them is The Open Network (TON) Foundation, which lays the blockchain groundwork for Telegram but operates as an independent organization.
Overall, Telegram's latest update is a significant one, and it adds a number of new and useful features to the app.
