Here’s what’s new in the big November update:

• Live broadcasts in Stories:
In the Stories section, under the “Live” tab, you can now start a live stream either personally or on behalf of a channel. During such streams, users can leave short comments and pin them using stars. The broadcaster can stream via their device’s camera or through external applications.

• Recurring messages:
When scheduling a delayed message, users can now specify how often it should be sent: daily, weekly, every two weeks, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually.

• Auction for gifts:
A new mechanic distributes limited gifts among users who place the highest bids in stars. If your bid is outbid and drops from the top, it is automatically carried over to the next round. If the bid loses in the final round, all spent stars are fully refunded.

• Redesigned panels on Android:
The new “Liquid Glass” design is now applied to interface elements such as the message input field, button panels in bots and channels, and the menu for commands and hashtags. The glass effect can be disabled under Settings > Power Saving > Chat Animations.

Other additions:
• Privacy settings for music saved in profile
• Ability to add a new contact by scanning a QR code
• Checkbox for synchronizing saved Telegram contacts with the device’s phonebook
• Option to block receiving gifts from channels in privacy settings

Download:
• Android: Google Play, APK from the official website or the verified channel
• iOS: App Store

#update #Android #iOS

Users of Telegram Desktop for macOS are facing a false "Deceptive Website Warning" when trying to open an Instant View for any site.

Most likely, Apple has mistakenly blocked the technical address that the messenger app uses to display Instant View articles.

Don't panic: this is a false warning. If you are impacted by the problem, here is what you can do:

One-time solution
In the warning window itself, click "Show Details", and then click the "visit this unsafe website" link, after which the article will open.

If the warning annoys you too much (unrecommended, not safe)
You can temporarily disable this check in macOS itself:
• Open Safari.
• In the top menu bar, select Safari › Settings › Security.
• Uncheck the "Warn when visiting a fraudulent website" option.

The @tginfo team will announce when the problem is resolved, so you don't forget to turn this setting back on.
