New methods for managing secondary bot usernames have appeared in TDLib, while Telegram Desktop now includes logic for determining a bot's status based on its username suffix. The client currently handles five variants: app, agent, ai, game and gay.
A secondary username does not replace the main one. Telegram Desktop checks the ending of the first username in the list and uses it to determine the bot's status label. The list of allowed suffixes is provided through Telegram's server configuration.
Management is currently implemented in TDLib through addBotSecondaryUsername and deleteBotSecondaryUsername. Adding a secondary username is available for bots the owner is allowed to manage, provided they have Telegram Premium. Each bot can have one secondary username, and the number of bots with such usernames is limited by a server-side parameter.

You may receive a message from a service account saying that someone has sent you 0.1 Gram (the minimum transfer amount). The transfer may include a comment asking you to open a bot and perform a certain action.
Don't fall for it. Don't open suspicious links, enter any personal data, or grant access to anything.
Hopefully, Telegram will take action against this spam in the future. For now, there is no solution other than not using the new wallet
To activate your wallet, someone needs to share your wallet address with you. You can then send the required amount of Gram to your own wallet using a third-party wallet, or someone else can send you Gram directly via a private message. A minimum balance of 0.1 Gram is required for the balance to become visible.
This is likely intended to reduce unnecessary network load and ensure that only users who actually want to use the wallet activate it.
You can also use direct links to send funds to users, for example, as donation links.

Telegram updated to version 13.0: native wallet and instant Gram transfers
Telegram has begun rolling out its own non-custodial wallet, Gram Wallet, in stages. For now, the service supports only Gram cryptocurrency and NFTs associated with the messaging app: collectible gifts and usernames, and anonymous numbers.
Gram Wallet is currently available to a limited number of users. To unlock access to the wallet before it rolls out to all Telegram users, you’ll need to update the app to the latest version and receive a transfer of at least 0.1 Gram from another user.
Once the wallet is activated, its balance will appear in the “Money” section of Settings, in place of the Wallet bot, which was renamed Walt and hidden from the main menu shortly before the native wallet launched. You’ll also be able to instantly send Gram to people you’re chatting with through the Gram tab in the attachment menu of a one-on-one chat.
One feature of the integrated wallet is the ability to make up to five Gram transfers a day to other Telegram users or wallet addresses without paying TON blockchain fees. The first transaction, however, is subject to a smart contract initialization fee.
Download the update
• Android: Google Play, APK from the official website or the verified channel.
• iOS: App Store.
• Windows / macOS / Linux: official website or GitHub.
• Windows: Microsoft Store.
• Linux: Flathub, Snapcraft.
• macOS: App Store or the verified channel.

You can also choose whether to send the original voice message or its text version.
In the experimental settings, you can also enable a new voice recorder that uses RNNoise to remove background noise before encoding the audio into Opus format. However, noise suppression may affect the recording quality of music or very quiet speech.
!!! UPD: This feature has been removed. It was a temporary experiment by one of the developers, available only in the Beta version. However, the experimental improvements to voice message recording are still available.

The gap between “what if…?” and “look, it works!” has never been smaller, and that changed how we build features in Telegram.
Message @designers to submit your concepts.
– Working, ready-to-implement code
complemented by
– A demo video of your feature in action
– Static mockups
– Demo videos with no code behind them
– Text-only concepts
No coding background? Curiosity, attention to detail and a good prompt will take you far.
The future of design isn’t drawn – it’s built.
(An example of what is possible by our iOS designer – this is a ready to use implementation not a motion video.)

Telegram Is Testing a News Feed and Personalized Recommendations Again
A separate “News” tab for viewing channel posts in a unified feed has appeared in Telegram for macOS Beta 13.0 (283318). The @telelakel channel reported the discovery.
How the news feed works
The current implementation of the post feed has several key features:
• Two sections: The “News” tab is divided into two sections — “Added” and “For You”.
• Custom feed: In the “Added” section, users can manually curate their feed by adding and removing selected channels through dedicated interface actions.
• Personalized recommendations: The “For You” section curates posts based on the user’s interests. Categories of interest (each with its own name and emoji) can be selected manually and changed over time. However, it remains unknown what algorithm powers this feed and whether it will include posts from channels the user isn’t subscribed to.
• Navigation and speed: The feed interface includes a search bar, pull-to-refresh, a new posts indicator, and a button to mark posts as read. Directly from the feed, users can open individual posts and channels, jump to chats, and copy links. For faster browsing, media files, profile pictures, and stories are preloaded in the background.
Background and context
The messenger’s team has been approaching the creation of a unified feed for eight years:
• The ability to combine channels into a unified news feed first appeared in the Beta version of Telegram for macOS back in January 2018, but was soon disabled on the server side.
• In April 2022, a commit confirming the development of a news feed was spotted in the official Telegram for iOS repository, though the feature never made it to release.
• Meanwhile, between 2019 and 2021, Telegram held a series of large-scale contests focused on news ranking and data clustering, as well as identifying channel languages and topics.
• Until now, the primary way to read subscriptions sequentially in the messenger has been the gesture for jumping to the next unread channel, while algorithmic recommendations have been limited to the “Similar Channels” list and the “Channels” tab in global search.
@tginfo editors note that introducing an algorithmic feed in the spirit of X (formerly Twitter) could significantly reshape how content is consumed in the messenger. For creators, it is a potential source of free organic traffic without buying ads, and for Telegram itself — a way to boost audience engagement and increase impressions for official ads.
Currently, the news feed is disabled on the server side and remains in development — its mechanics and appearance may change by the time of release.

Telegram Introduces Free Message Links and an Updated QR Code Editor
The personal profile QR code screen has been updated in the Beta versions of Telegram for iOS 13.0.1, Telegram for macOS 13.0, and Telegram for Android 13.1. Alongside new appearance settings, the messenger now allows users to generate special links and QR codes that let others message them for free even when paid messages are enabled.
How it works
If you have set a fee in Stars for incoming messages, a “Remove message fee” button now appears below your profile QR code.
When activated, it appends a randomly generated access token to your profile link. Your regular profile link will still require payment, while sending messages for free will only be available to those who follow the link or scan the QR code containing a valid token.
By default, the generated QR code is temporary and remains valid for 1 minute — this is handy when you want to show it to someone on your phone screen in person.
In the code management menu, you can adjust these settings: make the link permanent (Disable timer), limit its validity to one minute again (Expire after 1 minute), reset the token to invalidate the old link (Reset Code), or re-enable paid messages altogether (Restore message fee).
This feature is useful if you want to protect yourself from spam and unsolicited direct messages while still providing a “free” entry point on your website, on a business card, or in a private community where friends or potential clients might look for you, or if you want to automate link distribution via a bot.
New QR code design
Customizing the QR code’s appearance is no longer limited to preset themes: users can now pick colors from a wide palette, use any emoji as a background pattern, or select unique collectible gifts from their profile (the latter requires a Telegram Premium subscription).
Because of this, only the account owner can now manage the appearance of their QR code screen. Any decorations applied to the link’s design are visible to other users.
