How the features from the November Telegram update should work

In early November, Telegram launched a contest for Android developers, the goal of which was to implement features, which will become part of the upcoming update.

Today, the works of the contestants have become publicly available, which means that users can already try some of the functions. Let's try to figure out how it currently works:

1. Prevent forwarding messages and saving media

At the moment, the function is working, and can be configured by the author of the group or channel. It is important to note that forwarding messages and saving media works from older versions of clients, this should be fixed after stable release.

2. Sending messages via a channel in public groups

At the moment, you can write via channel only in those chats where the user is the administrator. There is no such limitation on the test server.

Sponsored Posts in Third Party Clients

On the official website of the messenger an announcement has appeared regarding the display of sponsored messages in third-party Telegram applications.

Developers using the Telegram API must maintain and start displaying official sponsored posts correctly in their apps by January 1, 2022.

Using the Telegram API will continue to be free for all developers. The rules regarding monetization in third-party applications remain the same: developers are allowed to monetize their efforts through their own advertising or other legal means, provided that all monetization methods used in their applications are clearly mentioned in their app store descriptions.

If the rules are ignored, Telegram will disable applications that violate them.

Configure Secret Chat Requests in Other Active Sessions

According to the official GitHub repository with the source code of Telegram for Android, the upcoming update will give you an option to disable Secret Chat requests for active sessions of choice.

In other words, users will be able to make some exact devices they have logged in uncappable of accepting new Secret Chat requests. Earlier, users were complaining they were missing out some Secret Chats because of unclear algorithm which decides on which device should the chat start on.
