<p>Today we are introducing Channels, a new tool for broadcasting your messages to large audiences. Channels replace the old Broadcast lists and are better in every way. They can have an <strong>unlimited</strong> number of members, they can be public with a <strong>permanent URL</strong> and each post in a channel has its own <strong>view counter</strong>. </p>
<p>Views from forwarded copies of your messages will be included in the total count. Last but not least, new members can see the entire message history in a channel once they join — all the way to day one. </p>
<p>If you'd like an example, join our official <ahref="https://telegram.me/telegram"><strong>Telegram channel</strong></a> to get notified about our updates, or try creating your own channels from the ‘New Message’ menu.</p>
<p>In other good news, we‘ve added Quick Replies from notifications, which are now supported on iOS 9 devices. This means you can reply to messages in Telegram, directly from your iPhone’s lock screen. Split View and more iOS 9 features will become available in early October.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, due to a bug in iOS 9, it is currently not possible to display the input field for Quick Replies right away — you‘ll need to press the ’Reply' button in order for it to appear. Quick replies will work as expected when iOS 9.1 is released with the relevant bugfixes.</p>
<p>The <ahref="/blog/photo-editor-and-passcodes#photo-editor">in-app Photo Editor</a> for iOS was updated with tools to adjust an image's tint, fade, and curves. The existing shadows and highlights tools default to 50% and are now functional in both directions.</p>
