🔄 Telegram-FOSS v8.1.2 is now available on F-Droid!

Refresh F-Droid to update.

âŦ‡ī¸ If this does not yield anything, it can be any of these reasons:
- You have discovered an F-Droid bug.
- F-Droid repositories are down.
- The wrong 'suggested' tag is set.

You may wish to simply use the GitHub version we link here as it's faster and easier. It is labeled as "beta", even though it's the current stable version.

If you do prefer to use a client, we can strongly recommend @AuroraDroid by our friend Rahul.

🎉 Telegram-FOSS v8.2.7 has been released!

The 🆕 version is only available via the TG-FOSS repository here, and below, as F-Droid has not built it yet. You'll receive a quick notification 🔔 once F-Droid is ready too.

The versions in between were apparently just bugfixes.

â„šī¸ Android Telegram v8.3.1 binary + source code have been released

Telegram-FOSS should follow relatively quickly as usual, you will be notified.

🔃 Main changes: protected content, delete by date, and device management

🗃 Changelog:

- Group and Channel owners who want to keep their content members-only are now able to restrict forwarding from their chat, which also prevents screenshots and limits the ability to save media from posts.
- Users are now able to delete any messages from a conversation at any time. With this update, you can clear chat history from a specific day or date range in any one-on-one chat.
- A new devices menu has been added that lets you control individual devices signed on to your account, and whether or not they can accept new calls and/or new secret chats.
- Users can now choose to send messages as channels they own.
- Some mobile devices will be able to receive calls from Telegram when signing in to an account. The last five digits of the number that called will be the verification code.
- Chat themes, previously available only for individual chats, are now available for the entire app.

â„šī¸ Android Telegram v8.4.1 binary + source code have been released

Telegram-FOSS should follow relatively quickly as usual, you will be notified.

🔃 Main changes: Spoiler messages, message translation, Emoji reactions

🗃 Changelog:

- Users can now attach specific emoji to messages sent by anyone in a chat as reactions.
- A special kind of spoiler message can now be sent. In these messages, the content will not be visible until it is tapped, much like how spoilers are hidden in some online forum software.
- Messages can now be translated from other languages by selecting "Translate" from a message's context menu, after enabling message translation in settings. (This uses Google Translate, but works in TG-FOSS as Telegram pretends to be a web browser using the translate web page.)
- QR code images with colors applied can now be generated for any user or channel that has a public username.
- Some new Interactive Emoji have been added.

If you want to try the new reactions, it's enabled here now. On TG-Desktop you have to hover over the post for a bit. The translation feature is ridiculous though, why would a privacy-marketed messenger offer an easy way to send all your data to Google?
