<li>This Telegram update adds a few major improvements:</li>
<li>EMOJI CATEGORIES: Filter stickers and emoji by categories like "love", "celebration" or "sleeping" in the sticker and emoji tabs.</li>
<li>CHAT TRANSLATION: As a Premium user, translate entire chats in real time as you scroll them or receive new messages.</li>
<li>NETWORK USAGE: Check how much of your data was spent on Telegram in the updated Network Usage section in Settings.</li>
<li>MEDIA PERMISSIONS IN GROUPS: Control whether members of your groups can send 9 distinct media types – like Photos, Voice or Video Messages.</li>
<li>TRENDING EMOJI: As a Premium user, check out trending emoji packs in the emoji panel and long press an emoji to zoom in.</li>
<li>SELECT CHATS FOR BOTS: Bot developers can now let users quickly select groups, channels or contacts that meet predefined criteria (more in @BotNews).</li>
<li>This release also contains crash fix for macOS 10.12.6 and other improvements.</li>
<li>HIDDEN MEDIA, ZERO STORAGE USAGE, NEW DRAWING TOOLS, PROFILE PICTURES FOR YOUR CONTACTS, AND PUPPIES</li>
<li>We found someone's letter to Santa and implemented everything on the list:</li>
<li>Hidden Media</li>
<li>Media with spoiler effects. You can wrap photos and videos you send in a fuzzy cover by selecting media in the attachment menu and tapping (⋯) > Hide With Spoiler.</li>
<li>Zero Storage Usage</li>
<li>Auto-remove cached media. You can choose how long cached media is kept in Private Chats, Groups, and Channels – and add exceptions for specific chats.</li>
<li>Removing media by type. Separate tabs with Media, Files, and Music from all chats let you quickly clear the largest files. </li>
<li>Pie charts. The new design helps you see what's taking up space. </li>
<li>Dwarves with calculators. Cache size is now calculated a lot faster.</li>
<li>Reminder: All cached media you remove remains accessible in the cloud and can be re-downloaded if needed. </li>
<li>Profile Pictures for Your Contacts</li>
<li></li>
<li>Setting pictures for your contacts. You can choose your own picture for a contact – only you will see it on their profile.</li>
<li></li>
<li>Suggested profile pictures. When editing your contacts, you can suggest a photo for their profile. It will take them just two taps to add the picture you suggested.</li>
<li>Public profile pictures. If you only allow certain users to see your profile photos, you can set a public picture for everyone else. </li>
<li>Ultimate profile picture privacy. You can set 'Who can see my profile photos' to 'Nobody' and add some users or groups as exceptions.</li>
<li>Hiding Members in Large Groups</li>
<li>Member list privacy. Owners of large groups can hide the list of members. </li>
<li>The letter also mentioned taking over the world and a puppy, but we hope the real Santa will be able to handle that – now that we've done the rest.</li>
<li>GLOBAL AUTO-DELETE, TOPICS 2.0 AND MUCH MORE</li>
<li>Global Auto-Delete</li>
<li>You can set a Global Auto-Delete Timer for all new chats and groups you create.</li>
<li>New messages will be deleted after 1 day, week, month – or a custom duration you choose.</li>
<li>The new menu in Settings > Privacy and Security > Auto-Delete Messages also lets you set up Auto-Delete for any of your existing chats faster.</li>
<li>Topics 2.0</li>
<li>Admins of groups with 100+ members can organize discussions into separate topics.</li>
<li>Topics 2.0: Navigation</li>
<li>Topics now have a two-column layout that keeps recent chats easily accessible as you browse topics.</li>
<li>Previews of topic messages in the chat list work like a button – tap to jump to the message or hold to preview the topic.</li>
<li>When in a topic, you can hold the 'Back' button to go back to All Chats.</li>
<li>Topics 2.0: Organization</li>
<li>Up to 5 topics can be pinned to the top of the list.</li>
<li>Each topic now supports multiple pinned messages.</li>
<li>The 'View as Messages' mode now shows which topic each message belongs to.</li>
<li>Badge counters for topics you never opened will have a lighter, less distracting color.</li>
<li>Topics 2.0: General Topic</li>
<li>A new 'General' topic is now included by default, containing service messages and the earlier message history from the group.</li>
<li>Admins can rename the General topic or hide it in the topic list.</li>
<li>Aggressive Anti-Spam for Groups</li>
<li>Large groups can enable 'Aggressive Filtering' in Group Info > Administrators to remove more spam with automated algorithms.</li>
<li>Admins help improve filtering by reporting any false positives in 'Recent Actions'.</li>
