Mini App for Creating and Editing Stickers

The official @Stickers bot received its own web Mini App, which allows users to create and edit their sticker and emoji packs using a graphical interface.

In the past, users had to use text commands to manage their sets. In 2024 the messenger also introduced some set management capabilities directly in the official apps.

Telegram for Android Updated to Version 12.0

Here are the details about the main new features of this update:

• Updated profile screen: The Android app received a revamped appearance for user, group, bot, and channel profiles. The new screens visually resemble the design of the Telegram iOS client.

• Music in profile: You can add songs from any chats directly to your profile with one tap in the built-in player. After adding to the profile, the tracks will appear in a panel under your profile picture. Any audio files added to a public playlist are visible to everyone who views your profile.

• Gift-based themes: Dozens of new dynamic chat wallpapers based on unique gifts have been added, which can be set as a custom theme in any private chat. However, at the moment such wallpapers are not available for all collectible gifts.

Other changes:
• Introduced the mini-app of the official bot @Stickers;
• Ability to upgrade other users' gifts;
• Ability to see the value of a collectible gift;

Telegram 12.0 & Grok Update

Telegram 12.0 was expected to ship with Grok integration, but as of today (Aug 31, 2025) there’s still no confirmation. The deal appears to have stalled, with no signed agreement or official announcement.

This likely means Grok didn’t make it into 12.0 as planned — possibly due to negotiations falling through, strategy changes, or other delays.

For now, the future of #Grok on #Telegram remains uncertain.
