Massive update now rolling out to all users

   Exclusive feature for Premium users

Telegram, which continues to be one of the best alternatives to the likes of WhatsApp, is getting another major update, and once again, lots of new features are included.

For example, Telegram is now getting infinite reactions, as well as access to the reactions that were previously available only for Telegram Premium users.

In other words, even if you’re using the free tier, you’re getting access to all reactions, including the ones that were originally aimed at Premium users.

“All users now have access to dozens of reactions – including those that were previously only available with Telegram Premium, like 🤣 😐 🐳. To accommodate all the new emoji, we've redesigned the reaction panel, making it expandable. The reactions you use frequently will show up at the top. Premium Telegram Premium users can pick reactions from an infinite selection of custom emoji. To make choosing from thousands upon thousands of emoji easier, they can now attach up to 3 reactions per message,” Telegram says.

Further refinements for Android users

Premium users are also getting a new exclusive feature called animated emoji statuses that are displayed right next to their names.

Starting with this update, Telegram is also getting new username links that make working with this feature a little bit more straightforward.

“All @usernames on Telegram have their own t.me/username links, making it easy to share your public profile, group or channel anywhere on the internet. Every username now has a new unique link format – username.t.me – for those who want to emphasize their name (or have trouble finding the / key),” the parent company is announcing today.

As far as Android users are concerned, Telegram is getting several more minor refinements, including new smooth animations for opening, closing, and changing media. And on Android 13, Telegram now has a special icon to align with the phone’s dark mode and accent color.
