Zero Storage Usage

• You can add separate auto-remove settings for cached media from Private Chats, Groups, and Channels – with exceptions for specific chats.

• The new pie charts help visualize what's taking up space, and dedicated tabs for Media, Files and Music let you clear the largest items in just a few taps.

• Check out the new options in Settings > Data and Storage > Storage Usage.

New Drawing and Text Tools

Telegram's already powerful media editor has been fully redesigned:

• Drawing tools dynamically change width based on drawing speed and automatically smooth your lines.
• There is a new blur tool to redact sensitive data (or photobombers) – and 5 high-precision ways to choose colors, including the Eyedropper tool.
• When adding text to photos or videos, you can now change its size, font, and background.
• Adding custom animated emoji to text on images is available for all users, even if they don't have a Telegram Premium subscription.
• To quickly add shapes like rectangles, circles, arrows, stars, and chat bubbles, tap the “+” button.
• You can also hold the surface to fill the canvas with color – or to erase everything.
• In the coming updates, Telegram plans to further refine the media editor interfaces and improve their performance.

C'mon just update your app🗿.

High resolution images in Telegram

A new option has been noticed in the Telegram Desktop source code that changes the kPhotoSideLimit parameter from 1280 to 2560.

This means that Telegram will soon allow the sending of images in higher resolution.

@tginfoen suggests that this change will also affect video in the future.

Android 13 QPR 2 Beta 2: Google has added support for Unicode 15 emoji.

According to the schedule, the company promised to do this back in October-December.

Android 13 QPR 2 Beta 2: Pixel Launcher is experimenting with the option of automatically generating Themed icons.

Due to the lack of app developers enthusiasm, Google apparently decided to consider this feature after all. The new version of the Pixel Launcher has a new developer flag, ENABLE_FORCED_MONO_ICON, whose description reads: "Enable the ability to generate a monochromatic icons, if it is not provided by the app".

Instagram announced it will simplify its in-app navigation after years of confusing changes designed to push various products like Instagram Shop and Reels. The company says, starting in February, it will return the Compose button (the plus sign “+”) to the front and center of the navigation bar at the bottom of the app and it will remove the Shop tab entirely.
