<p>For us, your private data is <strong>sacred</strong>. We never use your data to target ads. We never disclose your data to third parties. We store only what is absolutely necessary for Telegram to work. </p>
<p>In <strong>2013</strong>, we gave millions of people power over their data with end-to-end encryption.</p>
<p>Today, we are giving hundreds of millions of users <strong>complete control</strong> of any private conversation they have ever had. You can now choose to delete any message you have sent or received for both sides in <strong>any</strong> private chat. The messages will disappear for both you and the other person – without leaving a trace. </p>
<p>The “Unsend” feature we introduced 2 years ago was only available for messages sent by you and only for 48 hours. Now you can remove messages you have <strong>sent or received</strong>, and there is <strong>no time limit</strong>. You can also fully delete any private chat from both your and the other person's device in just two taps. </p>

<p>To make your privacy complete, we’ve also introduced a way to restrict who can <strong>forward</strong> your messages. When this setting is enabled, messages you send that are forwarded by another user will no longer lead to your profile – instead they will show your display name in <strong>plain unlinked text</strong>. This way the messages you send can't be used to verify that you were their author.</p>
<divclass="blog_video_player_wrap"style="max-width: 480px; margin: 20px auto 20px;">
<p>Since the Settings section keeps getting bigger, we’ve added a <strong>search tool</strong> that allows you to quickly find the settings you're looking for.</p>
<divclass="blog_video_player_wrap"style="max-width: 480px; margin: 20px auto 20px;">
<h3><aclass="anchor"name="emoji-search-and-gifs"href="#emoji-search-and-gifs"><iclass="anchor-icon"></i></a>Emoji Search and GIFs</h3>
<p><strong>GIF</strong> and <strong>Sticker Search</strong> has been upgraded on all mobile platforms – with an updated interface that looks better (and finds more cats). You can press and hold to <strong>preview a GIF</strong> before sending.</p>
<p>Sticker packs now have <strong>unique icons</strong>, which makes it easier to select the right set. Large GIFs and video messages on Telegram are now <strong>streamed</strong>, so you can start watching them without waiting for them to fully download.</p>
<p>On Telegram for <strong>Android</strong>, you can now use keywords in many languages to find a <strong>specific emoji</strong>. If we are missing a keyword for an emoji, you’re welcome to suggest it <ahref="https://translations.telegram.org/en/emoji">here</a>– emoji search results will constantly update and improve in real time, without the need to update your Telegram app.</p>
<divclass="blog_video_player_wrap"style="max-width: 480px; margin: 20px auto 20px;">
<p>You’ll also see a list of related emoji when typing a message. If you like an emoji enough to send it without any accompanying text, the emoji will appear larger in the chat.</p>
<h3><aclass="anchor"name="voiceover-and-talkback"href="#voiceover-and-talkback"><iclass="anchor-icon"></i></a>VoiceOver and TalkBack</h3>
<p>We’ve added support for screen-reading features –<strong>VoiceOver</strong> on iOS and <strong>TalkBack</strong> on Android. These accessibility platforms give spoken feedback so that you can use Telegram without needing to see the screen.</p>
