Telegram happens to be a really dedicated app when it comes to introducing new features. The company is constantly providing developers with options that will only improve their experience and sometimes even surpasses the competition, such as WhatsApp and other apps. Today, the app is getting a new update that introduces many new changes, some of which are excellent.

Power saving mode on Telegram will let you turn off animations for better performance and battery life on older devices

The biggest update is power saving mode. Telegram is an app that is rich with animations, and they look excellent on phones that can handle them. However, you now have the option to turn them off entirely to preserve battery and improve overall performance, this is a really great feature for older devices. The good thing is that you can set the power saving mode to turn on independently when your phone hits a certain percentage, and you also have individual toggles for effects you want to disable.

Moving further, Telegram has also introduced granular playback speed and does exactly what it says. You can now select any speed ranging from 0.2x all the way up to 2.5x. Moreover, Telegram has added a new feature that shows you when each person reads your message in a group. However, for some reason, this is only applicable to groups with under 100 members. Speaking of groups, you can now send invite links as a message for users to join the group, as well; this is great for those who have restricted the settings for them being added to a group.

In addition to the updates mentioned above, Telegram has also added some other additions such asDynamic Orderfor stickers,Translated Botdescriptions,improved folder support on iOS, new animated emoji,new interactive emoji and reactions,and last but not least, a lot of new bug fixes.
