Earlier today (21st September 2021), Telegram Messenger launched a new update that brings a number of key features. In its latest monthly update, the messaging platform will now offer Interactive Emoji and New Chat Themes.
Chat Themes
Telegram is known to offer a number of features to organize and customize chats. This includes options like Chat Folders, Animated Backgrounds, and more. Now, the latest inclusion are the new Chat Themes. The latest update lets users come together in creating new themes for their personal chats. Furthermore, the application is also offering 8 new themes that the users can apply to specific private chats. These new themes offer colorful gradient message bubbles, attractive animated backgrounds, and unique backgrounds.
Interactive Emoji
Along with the Chat Themes, the company has also added new Interactive Emojis. Users can now simply send a singly emoji to any private chat by tapping on the animated emoji to send a full screen effect. If both the sender and receiver have their chat private windows open, a special animation will play which will also vibrate the device simultaneously on both parties’ smartphones. This makes the chat more interactive and offers additional expressions to the text based platform.
Other features launched in the latest update includes read receipts in small groups, which was previously only available in personal chats. Additionally, users can now also record live streams and video chats. For those unaware, Telegram hosts millions of communities that can create live events for unlimited viewers. Admins are now also capable of recording these Live Streams and Video Chats as well.
