Send Messages On Behalf of a Channel

Beta versions of Telegram for Android and Telegram Desktop got an option to send messages in chats on behalf of a channel.

This feature is expected to work:

• In public chats.
• In chats that are linked to channels (comments).
• In chats that are linked to location (geochats).

To use the feature, two conditions must be met simultaneously:
1) You are the administrator in the chat you are leaving your comment in. Not actual in 2024.
2) You are the owner of the channel on behalf of which you are writing.

Limitations are in power during testing and will be loosen up later.

Reactions in Telegram for macOS

In Beta-version of Telegram for macOS, you can see partial support for reactions.

At the same time, in the group chat you can see who and which reaction was put on the message.

Also, you can disable reactions in your channels and groups, or allow only some of the emojis.

#macOS
Quick reaction

In Telegram for iOS Beta, you can quickly respond to a message using a double tap.

Previously, it was used to quickly open the context menu of message.

#iOS

In Telegram for iOS Beta, thanks to the new iOS 15 feature, you can translate any highlighted text into your native language.
