whatsapp-rival Wire Several new features have been announced via a blog post. The messaging app is offering features like private content for groups and channels, the ability to delete by date, better device management and much more. let’s take a look
Protected content across groups and channels
With this update, creators on Telegram will be able to protect the content they publish. If necessary, group and channel owners can restrict message forwarding from their chats. This will prevent others from taking screenshots and limit the ability to save media from posts.
To change users’ ability to forward messages, open the Group or Channel Information page > Group/Channel Type > Restrict Content Saving.
delete messages by date
Telegram users will now be able to delete chat history from a specific day or date range in any face-to-face chat. To open the calendar, tap the date bar that pops up as you scroll through chats – then choose which days to clear.
As of now, clearing history by date currently only works in one-on-one chats.
Manage Connected Devices
Telegram has added a new button to quickly link desktop devices and a setting to automatically log out inactive devices after some time. Users can also choose which connected device can accept calls or new incognito chats.
Anonymous posting in public groups
Next is the ability to appear as a channel when sending messages to public groups. Users can tap the profile picture next to the message bar and select one of their channels. Once a user does this, messages sent by him will appear with the channel name and photo instead of your personal account.
Other features offered by Telegram are new ways to log in via calls, responses to join requests, and global chat themes on Android devices. For iOS users, Telegram has announced live text recognition, the ability to format text in media captions, and a redesigned contact information on iOS.
