Telegram to add message reactions, in-app translation in latest update

New Delhi. Encrypted messaging app Telegram has started rolling out its latest update for its iPhone as well as iPad app with tons of new features including message reaction, translation, hidden text and more. Users can now double-tap a message bubble and a small thumbs-up emoji will appear below that message. Users can change the emoji in the app for this quick response under Settings- Stickers & Emoji- Quick response. For more responses, tap and hold on the message bubble.

Now anyone can translate any message into another language directly in the app. Settings – Enabling translation to language adds a dedicated translate button to the context menu when a message is selected. You can also exclude any languages ​​you’re fluent in, which will hide the translate button for those messages.

Translate is available on all Android devices that support Telegram, but it requires iOS 15 Plus on Apple devices. The list of available languages ​​depends on the operating system of the user’s phone.

Another new feature is the ability to generate themed QR codes for any user with a public username, as well as for groups, channels, and bots.

Tap the new QR code icon next to a person’s username (or from the chat’s info page), choose the most appropriate color and pattern, then print, post, or share your QR code with other apps. (IANS)
