<p>Telegram channels are becoming a worldwide trend. Each day they get more than <strong>400,000,000</strong> views. Today we are introducing several features that will make channels and bots even more powerful tools for connecting with your audience.</p>
<h3><aclass="anchor"name="links-to-posts"href="#links-to-posts"><iclass="anchor-icon"></i></a>Links to Posts</h3>
<p>The Quick Share menu now allows you to copy links to <strong>individual messages</strong> inside a channel. You can send these links to friends outside of Telegram or post them to other social networks. Following such links will open the channel and highlight the message.</p>
<p>“Is it OK to post now?” “Is this urgent enough to notify everyone?” If you're a channel admin, you know these questions too well. Luckily, you can now send <strong>silent messages</strong> that will not notify your subscribers. This is very useful for late night or non-urgent updates. Tap on the bell icon to toggle silent messages on and off.</p>
<p>There are times when it‘s important to know who posted a certain message. Starting today, you can enable signatures in Channel Info. New messages will be signed with the posting admin’s chosen screen name but will not link to their profile.</p>
<h3><aclass="anchor"name="edit-messages-in-channels-and-supergroups"href="#edit-messages-in-channels-and-supergroups"><iclass="anchor-icon"></i></a>Edit Messages in Channels and Supergroups</h3>
<p>Made a typo? Missed a word? Itching to add something? As of today, you can edit your messages after they were posted. Tap the message (double tap on iOS), then press ‘Edit’. This feature works with <ahref="/blog/supergroups">supergroups</a> and channels because they both use the same underlying technology.</p>
<h3><aclass="anchor"name="quick-share-button-for-bots"href="#quick-share-button-for-bots"><iclass="anchor-icon"></i></a>Quick Share Button for Bots</h3>
<p>Many news organizations are building bots to provide tailored subscriptions. In this update we've made it easier to share the <strong>links</strong>, <strong>pictures</strong> and <strong>videos</strong> you get from bots. Check out the new official <ahref="https://telegram.me/forbesbot">@forbesbot</a> to see how this works.</p>

<p>In other news, sticker previews now work everywhere including sticker suggestions when you type an emoji and the ‘Add stickers’ screen. Tap and hold on a sticker to see it in full size before sending. The devil's in the details, right?</p>
