Telegram stands for freedom and privacy and has many easy to use features.
Search Stories by Location. Users on vacation or at an event can add a location tag to their story to show where they were.
Tapping a location tag opens other public stories from the same place – to see more concert selfies or restaurant recommendations.
Only stories that a user is allowed to view appear in search results. Private stories are never included in public searches.
Mini App Bar. You can collapse mini apps to check chats or open other mini apps – and seamlessly return without losing your progress.
To minimize an app, swipe down on its header, then tap the app bar to reopen any of your active apps.
Telegram Stars. You can make purchases and support content creators with Telegram Stars – a seamless way to pay for products in mini apps or unlock posts in your favorite channels.
Bot developers and content creators can use the Stars they earn to receive rewards or place subsidized ads.
Hashtag Search. Hashtags can be used to quickly filter your chats for messages containing that tag.
Tapping a hashtag also allows you to see results from public channels – helping you discover new creators and browse popular topics.
Captions Above Media. Captions can be placed above the media, to add top text to memes or to give an intro to photos and videos.
After selecting media in your 📎attachment menu, press and hold the Send arrow and select 'Move Caption Up'.
You can also edit a message to move its caption up or down – just hold the ✅ Save button to see the option.
Reaction Management. In addition to choosing which reaction emoji are available, channel admins can select a maximum number of reaction types per post – to keep their feed more tidy.

Share Location Indefinitely. When sharing your live location with a user or group, you can tap to add more time.
By choosing 'Until I turn it off', your location will be shared indefinitely – letting contacts check your location for extended periods.
Birthdays. You can add your date of birth to your profile – reminding contacts when to celebrate.
When other users have their birthdays, a special banner appears in your chat list so you can quickly congratulate them and gift a Premium subscription.
By default your birthday is only visible to your contacts – and you can adjust its visibility in your privacy settings.
Recommended Channels. The 'Channels' tab in 🔎Search shows all the channels you subscribe to – plus a list of recommended channels with similar topics.
Pulling up to jump to unread channels also includes recommended channels – after you've read all the ones you subscribe to.

To add an existing sticker to your pack, open it in the panel and tap ➕ and choose 'Add an Existing Sticker'.
Sticker Editor. You can turn photos on your device into custom stickers with text, drawings, emoji and more.
To start, tap ➕ in the sticker panel and select a photo. The editor also lets you instantly remove the background in one tap or add an outline for that classic sticker look.
💼 Links to Chat. Business users can create unique links that instantly open a chat with the business and suggest a message in the input field.
These links are in t.me format, so you can use them in chats or anywhere else – like a button on your website or a QR code on a menu.
💼 Folder Tags. Business users can add colored labels to chats based on the chat folders they belong to.
Chats can have multiple tags – which dynamically update based on the folder you're viewing them from.
For example, an unread work chat would appear with Unread and Work tags in your All Chats folder, but only Unread in your Work folder.
💼 Away Messages. Telegram Business users can set an away message to automatically reply when they are closed or on vacation.
Both greeting and away messages support text formatting, files and all media types – and can contain multiple messages.
💼 Location and Business Hours. Telegram users can convert their profile to a business page – adding the location and business hours of their company.
To add business info to your profile or create automated greetings, away messages and quick replies – go to Settings > Telegram Business.
Search Stories by Hashtag. Tapping hashtags in story captions lets you browse public stories with matching tags.
If you're a creator or business, you can use hashtags to grow your audience organically and reach new customers.
Pay for Content with Stars. Channel subscribers can use Telegram Stars to unlock exclusive photos and videos – directly supporting their favorite content creators.
Unlocking a post gives you lifetime access to its content – even if the post is deleted or you unsubscribe from the channel.
Collapsible Quotes. Long portions of text sent with quote formatting can be collapsed and expanded.
This makes messages more compact – to read and to write. When writing, tap to ↔️ collapse the quote and save space in the message field.
When reading, tap 🔽 to expand the quote and 🔼 to collapse it and keep scrolling.
Quick Actions for Phone Numbers. Tapping a phone number in a message like +971542022222 opens a menu where you can send a message, start a call or add a contact in one tap.

Any Telegram user can upload their own artwork as custom emoji for Premium users – and everyone else can use them in their Saved Messages.
Mass Moderation. Groups admins can select several messages to perform multiple moderation actions at the same time – with individual toggles for each user and action.
The menu also has options to restrict users and limit their permissions if needed.
In addition, admins of groups with 200+ members can enable aggressive spam filtering to help automate moderation.
My Profile. The 'My Profile' section in Settings lets you view your profile as it appears to other users.
There you can quickly change any info like your bio and profile colors – or add your birthday and highlight a channel you own.
It also allows you to pin 3 stories to the top and quickly manage the privacy settings of stories on your profile or in your archive.
Share Sticker Sets. Anyone can tap a sticker in chat to instantly add the full set to their library.
Sticker sets also have a unique link – so you can share them in messages or other apps as well.

Custom sticker packs can also include any existing stickers on Telegram – either from Telegram artists or other users.
💼 Chatbots for Business. Businesses can connect a Telegram bot to their account that will process and answer messages on their behalf.
You can control which chats the bot is able to access – like excluding chats with your contacts or only responding to new chats.
Developers can enable Business Mode in @BotFather to integrate their bots with Telegram Business.
💼 Start Page. Telegram Business lets you customize the start page for empty chats – adding your own text and a unique sticker.
