🏆 New contest for Android Designers!

Prize fund: at least $30,000 – from which the 1st place winner will receive $10,000 if any submissions qualify for the 1st prize.

Task: Develop a comprehensive concept of voice and video calls for Telegram X on Android that includes one-on-one calls, as well as group calls in voice chats.

Details: https://contest.com/docs/android-design-21

Deadline: 23:59 on August, 1 (Dubai Time)

Who can take part: Anyone.

How to submit: @ContestBot will start accepting archives with submissions closer to the deadline.

Yesterday the first contest for Telegram X was launched.

The challenge is to create design for private calls and voice chats to be implemented during the upcoming contest for developers.

The best thing about it is you don’t have to look up to other clients: you are free to provide the design that you feel would be the best experience for personal calls and voice chats on Android.

Most important thing is to take a look at both private calls and voice chats at the same time, and achieve the simplest interface for the end user.

If you wanted to contribute to Telegram X, and wish it would strike back again, you are more than welcome to join and give the best try.

These contests are just the very beginning of the plan to assemble together the team of the best warriors to build the best messenger for Android. But further steps depend only on the results of these contests.

More Telegram X news will be announced within the course of these contests, and any potential upcoming updates between them.

Stay tuned.
