Telegram Unveils New Upgrades in its 10th Update of 2023: Colorful Calls, Thanos Snap Effect and Epic Update for Bots
In its most recent update, instant messaging app Telegram (which has over 800 million monthly active users) has unveiled its highly anticipated 10th and last update of 2023, featuring a range of exciting enhancements aimed at elevating user experience across the board. The update introduces colorful calls, a visually stunning Thanos Snap Effect for deleted messages, and the largest Bot update, marking the most extensive in Telegram’s history.
Upgraded Calls for a Richer Experience
Telegram has introduced a significant overhaul to its calling feature, allowing users to engage in conversations, activate their cameras, or share their screens—all within the secure confines of end-to-end encryption, accessible across every platform.
The redesigned calling interface marks a new step forward, featuring new animations and beautiful backgrounds that adapt to the call’s status—whether it’s ringing, active, or concluded. This aesthetic transformation not only enhances the visual appeal but also optimizes resource utilization, resulting in extended battery life and improved functionality on older devices.
This update addresses numerous bugs and interface glitches, underlining Telegram’s commitment to providing a seamless user experience. Furthermore, notable enhancements to call quality have been implemented, with ongoing plans for additional improvements to connection and audio quality slated for 2024.
Thanos Snap Effect for Message Deletion
Building on the experimental vaporize animation introduced on iOS last month, Telegram now brings the impressive and energy-efficient Thanos Snap Effect to both iOS and Android. This captivating animation accompanies the deletion of any message, adding an extra layer of visual delight to the messaging experience.
Epic Bot Update: A Paradigm Shift in Bot Functionality
Telegram celebrates the culmination of the year with the most extensive update to its Bot Platform, marking a pivotal moment in the platform’s evolution. Telegram’s versatile and free bot platform empowers developers to seamlessly integrate diverse services into the Telegram ecosystem, from simple chat bots to robust mini-apps capable of replacing entire websites.
Among the many additions, bots can now react to messages, oversee reactions, manage quotes and links, and even send replies to other chats or topics. The enhancements extend further, allowing bots to retrieve information about giveaways and boosts in channels where they hold administrative roles.
For those eager to explore the world of bot development, Telegram encourages developers to peruse the Bot Guide. This resource offers additional information and a step-by-step tutorial tailored for beginners, ensuring a smooth entry into the realm of bot creation.
While these features are just the tip of the iceberg, Telegram promises more exciting updates in January 2024. Users are encouraged to explore the new functionalities, from the upgraded calls to the epic bot capabilities, and look forward to additional surprises in the upcoming year.
