On iOS, press and hold anywhere on the chat. This also opens up a menu with additional actions 🦾.

Limitless Voice Chats : Group and Channel admins can start a voice chat to bring an unlimited number of people together for live talks, podcasts and more.

Specific invite links let users instantly join as a listener or speaker, and listeners can raise their hand if they want to add to the conversation.

Your bio text is visible in the list, which you can use to add info or ask questions. For voice chats in channels, you can join with your personal account or appear as one of your channels for extra privacy.

Chat List Swipe Gestures : In Settings, Android users can assign a specific action to swiping left in the chat list – like mute, pin, delete, archive or mark as read.

By default, iOS users can swipe right to pin or mark as read, and swipe left to mute, delete or archive.

Record Voice Chats : Admins can tap Start Recording to save audio from voice chats.

The audio file is instantly sent to the admin’s Saved Messages chat, ready to share with their audience.

Invite Speakers and Listeners to Voice Chats : Admins in voice chats can share specific invite links that let users instantly join with speaking privileges or with their mic muted.

Listeners can raise their hand at any time to ask admins for the ability to speak.

Groups : Up to 200,000 people can talk, text and share media in group chats.

Groups can be private or public and offer powerful admin tools to manage discussions of any size. In Broadcast Groups, the number of read-only members is unlimited.

To see what your community thinks about hot topics or current events, try creating a poll or starting a voice chat.

Admin tools : Set individual permissions and custom titles for admins in group chats to give everyone their own role and responsibilities.

You can also allow your admins to post anonymously, using the name and profile pic of the group.

Enable Remain Anonymous to make an admin invisible. Anonymous admins can’t be seen in the list of members and their messages are sent with the name and photo of the group instead of their own.

📹 Speaking of video calls, we will be adding a video dimension to our voice chats in May 2021, making Telegram a powerful platform for group video calls.

Stay tuned!
