Telegram has announced an update to its popular messaging service, bringing new features such as the ability to translate messages in the app and react with emojis to messages for a quick response. The instant messaging service that competes with the likes of WhatsApp and Signal has also added for spoiler text formatting on its apps, allowing s to hide the content of a message that may contain spoilers, which can then be displayed by the recipient with a tap. Telegram is also adding for themed QR codes for any or group with a public name.

The first feature iOS 15 to use the feature.

With the latest update, Telegram has added for quick reactions, allowing emojis to be used to react to messages they receive from other s. The feature has been popularised by apps like message reactions. Android s can navigate to Chat Settings > Quick Reaction, while iOS s will need to check Stickers and Emoji > Quick Reaction to choose their default reaction emoji.

Telegram has also added for spoiler formatting, which will allow s to hide the content of their messages if they contain spoilers of any kind. s can choose to hide specific parts of their messages, which others can tap to reveal — if they want to. The feature can come in handy when discussing recently released movies like The Witcher. It can also be useful when discussing sensitive topics and the hidden part of the message can work as trigger warnings for s.

Telegram already s QR codes, but the service is now adding for ‘themeable' QR codes that can be generated for any that has a public name. s can also generate QR codes for their groups, channels, and even bots while customising a QR code with different colours. These can then be shared with other apps, or printed and emailed. Meanwhile, the service has also improved seven animated emoji in personal chats with full-screen effects, according to the company.
