Telegram is one of the feature-packed messaging services out there, armed with some neat perks that can put rivals like WhatsApp and Signal to shame when it comes to functionality. While basic Telegram features like the ability to edit messages after sending them are well known, here are some lesser-known, yet incredibly useful things the app can do that could come in quite handy. Faster and Stronger Keep-Alive Service
Telegram allows edit, unsend sent messages even for the other people on the same chat. It allows to unsend messages shared with the first 48 hours after sending. Stop Being Added to Random Groups If you do not want this to happen and want Telegram to keep running in the background to send you notifications in real-time, you can head over to Settings/ Notifications and Sounds/ Keep Alive Service and turn it on. A recently introduced feature, Telegramβs new Group Voice Chats allow users in a group to initiate a common group voice chat for all members. However, users can choose to drop out of the ongoing group chat and re-enter at any given point. To make use of this, head into any group of choice and tap on the group name. Now head to the three-dot menu on the top right and choose Start Voice Chat.
To lock your messages, go to βSettingsβ, βPrivacy and Securityβ and tap on βPasscode Lockβ. You will be asked to set a four-digit passcode and confirm it. Once you do that, you will find additional options to βunlock the app with fingerprintβ and βauto-lockβ it after a specific duration. Cloud access All usernames on Telegram have their own t.me/username links, making it easy to share public profile, group or channel anywhere on the internet. Every username will now have a new unique link format β username.t.me β for those who want to emphasize their name (or have trouble finding the / key). Infinite Reactions
To create a channel, right swipe on the homepage, and tap on βNew Channelβ. Provide your channel name, description, select channel type, and create a unique URL. Thatβs it. Edit Sent Messages
