Telegram has announced a new update that adds improved calls with a colorful new design, a new vaporization effect when you delete messages, the largest bot update in Telegram’s history – and more. These updates are bundled along the app version 10.5.0.
Telegram v10.5.0 Changes
Upgraded Calls on Telegram
Telegram calls have been redesigned with new animations and dynamic backgrounds that change automatically based on the call’s status: ringing, active, or ended, all of this while utilizing fewer resources. Further, many bugs and glitches have been fixed, and call quality has been improved.
Thanos Snap Effect when Deleting Messages
Telegram is also introducing a new animation effect called the ‘Thanos Snap Effect’. This comes into effect while deleting messages, which get vaporized into a million pixels. It also applies to auto-delete messages.
Epic Bot Update
Telegram has rolled out Bot API 7.0, the largest update to the Bot Platform in Telegram’s history.
This includes introducing full reaction support for bots, Replies 2.0, Link Preview Customization, batch actions that allow bots to delete multiple messages in a single request, giveaway support, and more. Developers can find all the changes to the Bot Platform in this epic changelog.
Regarding the announcement, Pavel Durov, CEO / Founder / Product Manager of Telegram said,
I wish all our users peace, happiness, prosperity, and inspiration in the new year. I have a very good feeling about 2024
