<p>This update brings a new power saving mode, optimizes Telegram for lower-end Android devices, adds even more playback speed options, and much more.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="power-saving-mode" href="#power-saving-mode"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Power Saving Mode</h3>
<p>Telegram&#39;s beautiful animations and lightweight effects are optimized to make any phone feel powerful, but can now be disabled to <strong>extend battery life</strong> and <strong>improve performance</strong> on older devices.</p>
<p>Power Saving Mode can be set to <strong>automatically turn on</strong> when your battery reaches a certain percent – with <strong>individual toggles</strong> that let you disable specific effects.</p>

<p>iOS users can also use power saving settings to <strong>limit background updates</strong> – although we do not recommend doing this, because you will see your app <em>&#39;Updating…&#39;</em> a lot more often.</p>
<p>For Android, we&#39;ve manually tested more than <strong>200</strong> device types to see how well Telegram performs and created <strong>optimized default settings</strong> to ensure all users get the best experience.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You can toggle Power Saving mode or tweak individual settings for autoplay, animations, and effects in <em>Settings &gt; Power Saving</em>.</p>
