A (Not So) Brief History of Telegram

For some reason, we started writing this backwards – from the latest update to the primordial summer of 2013. And then it was too late to change the order because the guy who compiled the post said he would go on a hunger strike if we tried.

So if you're a fan of chronology, please jump to the end and scroll up from there. This page gets updated each time a new post hits the Telegram blog.

December 2021, First Update

+

Protected Content, Delete by Date, Device Management and More

+

A new setting was added to Groups and Channels that allows creators to keep their content exclusive by restricting message forwarding – while also preventing screenshots and limiting the ability to save media.

+

The option to delete all messages from a day or range of dates was added to 1-on-1 chats, giving users a way to clear specific sections of chat history.

+

The Devices menu in Settings was fully redesigned, including a new auto-logout timer for inactive sessions and the ability to toggle whether a specific device can accept incoming calls or Secret Chats.

+

In Public Groups and Channel Comments, users were given the choice to send messages anonymously – appearing as one of their public channels instead of their personal account.

Hyper-Speed Scrolling and Calendar View for Shared Media, Join Requests, Global Chat Themes on iOS and More

+

Accelerated scrolling and pinch to zoom for media thumbnails were added to Shared Media to find past photos, videos, files (and more) even faster. Tapping the date bar opens a calendar view, with media previews for each date.

+

Join requests let group and channel admins confirm new members before they are allowed join. This creates new options for communities – like a special superfans chat or super-secret channel.
