πŸ“° Publishing HD photos is, I admit, one of my favorite features to this day due to the increased pixel size limit for each photo from 1280 to 2560. Despite the fact that this feature has just been officially introduced in today's blog, the server has allowed publishing large photos for over 2 years. And Telegram Desktop is the first client to add this functionality, albeit as an experimental one.

πŸ–Ό Now, if you try to send a photo where the width or height is higher than 2560px, the server will compress it to a size that the width and height do not exceed 2560px.

Collaborative To-Do Lists

The beta version of Telegram for iOS now has the ability to create to-do lists. It is likely this potentially upcoming feature will only be available to Telegram Premium subscribers. Only Premium subscribers are able to mark items as completed in existing lists.

Each list may contain up to 30 tasks and their creation is available in both personal and group chats.

When creating a list in a group, the creator of the list may choose to allow all participants to add new tasks. It is also possible to allow other users to mark and unmark tasks as β€œcompleted”, in which case the avatar of the person who completed the task will be displayed next to the check mark.

Improved "Messages to Channels" Feature

In the Beta version of Telegram for iOS 11.13 (30945), users can specify the number of stars they are willing to pay and set the desired publication time when sending a message to a channel.

To do this, tap the button πŸ’¬ in the message input field. The suggested post will display an information block at the top, showing the cost and time.

The channel administrator can suggest changes in the text, as well as in the price and time of publication.

The feature is still in development and currently works only on the test server. Its functionality may change in the future.

Massive Data Breach Exposes 16 Billion Passwords

A major cybersecurity threat has emerged as researchers from Cybernews uncovered a compilation of over 16 billion stolen login credentials in what is now considered the largest-ever credential leak. The data includes user information from leading platforms such as #Google, Facebook, Instagram, #Apple, Gmail, #Telegram, GitHub, and even government portals.

The leaked credentials were sourced from over 30 different databases, many of which were obtained through infostealer malware.

The credentials include a mix of older leaks and newly compromised accounts, indicating ongoing security breaches.

Unlike past leaks, this compilation is more organized and potentially more dangerous due to its accessibility and volume.

πŸ† Telegram Android Contest 2025, Round 1

Prize fund
: $50,000
Deadline: 23:59 on July 11 (Dubai time)
Who can participate: Everyone
Results: July 2025

Telegram is hosting a contest for Android developers to implement a redesigned profile appearance.

In addition to prize money, the winner of this contest may join the πŸ›« Telegram Team in Dubai and earn $1 million per year after taxes by year 3.

THE TASK

Rework the existing profile screens by implementing the new design flow in strict accordance with the mockups provided below:
– Profiles of users, businesses, groups, and channels must be covered, including groups with topics enabled.
– Support for both day and night themes is mandatory.
– All related tabs and profile instances must be supported, including those where gifts are displayed.

πŸ’‘ For this task, we recommend building the relevant screens from scratch. However, reusing existing code components is acceptable.


Contest Requirements:
– You must use Java.
– No third-party UI frameworks are allowed.
– The submission must be consistent with the existing Telegram for Android codebase.
– The app's stability and performance must not be affected with the changes you made.
– The app must be free of significant flaws (including crashes, visual glitches, noticeable element blinking, layout errors, and more).

❗️The implementation must precisely follow the provided design mockups, including all transitions shown in the animated demos.


Evaluation:
During the evaluation stage, we will review your code and test the submission on a wide range of Android devices.

Submissions:
Contestants will be able to submit their entries to @ContestBot at a later date. We will further clarify the submission instructions closer to the deadline.
