- Paul Durov announced new tools in Telegram
- The messenger will add Stories, short videos from users
- The app’s creator emphasized the focus on privacy and convenience
- Wait for the innovation early next month
Last night, June 26, Telegram founder Paul Durov published a post about the messenger’s expanded functionality. The update will bring the highly anticipated Stories, short video notes from users, to the app.
“Our audience has been asking for years that we add the ability to post Stories to Telegram.. It was in more than half of all requests,” the app developer said in his Telegram channel.
He also said that the development team was against the introduction of the feature until the very last.. However, internal tests showed great potential and left an extremely positive impression.
The new feature was designed with user-friendliness and privacy in mind.. Stories will be placed in a separate block, and the author can set a list of those people who will see them.
The developers will also add the ability to place text or a smiley face on the video. And if you want, you can just hide them.. The highlight of the feature will be support for both front and back camera images.
The user can choose how long the recordings are saved, from 6 to 48 hours.. Again, Stories can also be anchored to a profile if you want.. Most likely, the innovation will appear in the application in early July. You can watch a promo about this feature at the link. Recall that at the end of March the messenger added support for transfers in USDT. Incrypted подготовили для вас гайд по этой функции.
