<p>In addition to <a href="https://telegram.org/blog/group-video-calls">Group Video Calls</a>, this update adds <strong>animated backgrounds</strong> and <strong>message sending animations</strong>, as well as a new <strong>menu button for bots</strong>, new ways to <strong>import stickers</strong>, reminders to help keep your account safe, and more.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="animated-backgrounds" href="#animated-backgrounds"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Animated Backgrounds</h3>
<p>Meet <strong>animated backgrounds</strong> for chats first time in a messaging app! These multi-color gradient wallpapers are generated <strong>algorithmically</strong> and move beautifully every time you send a message.</p>

</div>
<p>Our designers added these smooth, energy-efficient animations to all <strong>default themes</strong>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You can find more animated backgrounds in Settings. <strong>Android:</strong> <em>Chat Settings &gt; Change Chat Background</em>. <strong>iOS:</strong> <em>Appearance &gt; Chat Background</em>.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="creating-amp-sharing-backgrounds" href="#creating-amp-sharing-backgrounds"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Creating &amp; Sharing Backgrounds</h3>
<p>In case the default options are not enough, it&#39;s super-easy to create your own animated backgrounds. Choose <strong>three</strong> or <strong>four colors</strong> to unlock the animation, then add an optional <strong>pattern</strong> for extra style.</p>

<p>When ready, <strong>share</strong> your animated wallpapers with friends and family to upgrade them to a new level of messaging experience.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="message-sending-animations" href="#message-sending-animations"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Message Sending Animations</h3>
<p><strong>Stickers and emoji</strong> now seamlessly hop from your keyboard into the chat with lightweight <strong>animations</strong> that wont affect your battery.</p>
<p>On iOS, this also applies to <strong>media</strong> you send from the attachment panel, and even <strong>text messages</strong>. Your input text smoothly transforms into the message bubble as it flies into the chat.</p>

<p>On iOS, backgrounds are now <strong>partially visible</strong> through the header and the footer in chats, giving the interface a classy new look.</p>
<p>Two new gradient <strong>app icons</strong> are available in <em>Settings &gt; Appearance</em> in addition to the classic blue and black versions:</p>
<div class="blog_image_wrap blog_medium_image_wrap">

</div>
<p>We also added a <strong>Telegram Features</strong> button at the bottom of the Settings menu on iOS, which opens the <a href="https://t.me/TelegramTips/233">Telegram Tips</a> channel. Tips are available in <a href="https://t.me/TelegramTips/266">10 languages</a>, including the newly added <a href="https://t.me/TelegramTips/266">Turkish version</a>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The same button was already on Android, you can find it in the <a href="https://telegram.org/blog/payments-2-0-scheduled-voice-chats#tips-and-new-android-animations">side menu</a>.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="login-info-reminders" href="#login-info-reminders"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Login Info Reminders</h3>
<p>It is essential to keep your Telegram <strong>phone number</strong> up to date to ensure you can always log in to your account. If your phone number has changed, you can quickly update it right from the new <strong>reminder</strong> in Settings on iOS.</p>
<div class="blog_image_wrap blog_medium_image_wrap">

</div>
<p>Android users will get these reminders in the next update, for now they can simply update their phone number by <strong>tapping</strong> on it in Settings.</p>
<!--Another reminder will help you practice your **Two-Step Verification password**.-->
<p>Users on all platforms will receive a <strong>notification</strong> from Telegram each time their Two-Step Verification settings are <strong>changed</strong>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Two-Step Verification on Telegram lets you set up an <strong>additional password</strong>, which you will need to enter every time you log in to your account.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="bot-menu" href="#bot-menu"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Bot Menu</h3>
<p>We made it easier to communicate with bots, adding a special menu button that lets you browse and send commands. Bots can also change the <strong>placeholder</strong> in the input field to give you a better idea of what kind of message they are expecting.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Bot developers can now create commands that <strong>change</strong> based on a users <strong>interface language</strong> and <strong>chat type</strong>, as well as special commands that only appear in specific chats or for <strong>admins</strong>.</p>
<p>More info is available in the <a href="https://core.telegram.org/bots/api">Bot API documentation</a>.</p>

<h3><a class="anchor" name="importing-stickers" href="#importing-stickers"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Importing Stickers</h3>
<p>The <a href="https://t.me/stickers">@stickers</a> bot can help you <strong>create new sticker packs</strong> as well as get <strong>usage stats</strong> for your stickers.</p>
<p>Today we&#39;re giving third-party developers the tools to make apps that help people generate <strong>new custom unique stickers</strong> and <strong>import</strong> their creations to Telegram <strong>in one tap</strong>.</p>

<p>If you are a developer interested in making apps that help users create stickers and publish them on Telegram, check out the new <a href="https://core.telegram.org/import-stickers">Sticker Importing Manual</a>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Remember, if you simply want Telegram users to install the stickers <em>you</em> made, you don&#39;t need any apps! Just upload your stickers using our <a href="https://t.me/stickers">bot</a>, then <strong>share the link</strong> to your pack with others.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="new-animated-emoji" href="#new-animated-emoji"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>New animated emoji</h3>
<p>This update is all about motion, so we couldn&#39;t go without new animated emoji. As always, simply send a message with a <strong>single emoji</strong> to get one of these in a chat:</p>
