</div>
<p>Voice Chats first appeared <a href="https://telegram.org/blog/voice-chats">in December</a>, adding a new dimension of live talk to Telegram groups. Starting today, they become available in <strong>channels</strong> too and there are <strong>no more limits</strong> on the number of participants.</p>
<p>This update also brings recordable voice chats, rich lists of participants, raise hand mechanics, invite links for speakers and listeners, voice chat titles, and a way for <strong>public figures</strong> to join voice chats <strong>as their channels</strong>.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="limitless-voice-chats" href="#limitless-voice-chats"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Limitless Voice Chats</h3>
<p>Admins of <a href="https://telegram.org/tour/channels"><strong>channels</strong></a> and <strong>public groups</strong> can now host voice chats for <strong>millions of live listeners</strong>. No matter how popular your talk gets, new people will be able to tune in. It&#39;s like public radio reinvented for the 21st century.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>To start a Voice Chat, open the profile of any <strong>group</strong> or <strong>channel</strong> where you&#39;re an <strong>admin</strong>, tap (⋮) or (⋯) and select <em>Start Voice Chat</em>.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="recorded-chats" href="#recorded-chats"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Recorded Chats</h3>
<p>While some conversations are <a href="https://telegram.org/blog/autodelete-inv2#auto-delete-messages">meant to be temporary</a>, others are worth preserving and passing on. Admins can now <strong>record audio</strong> from voice chats to <strong>save talks</strong> and publish them for followers who missed the live event.</p>
<div class="blog_video_player_wrap" style="max-width: 400px; margin: 20px auto 20px;">

</video>
</div>
<p>Once you finish recording, the audio file becomes <strong>instantly available</strong> in your <a href="https://t.me/TelegramTips/242">Saved Messages</a>. To avoid surprises, chats that are being recorded are marked with a <strong>red light</strong> next to their title.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="raise-hand" href="#raise-hand"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Raise Hand</h3>
<p>In chats where <strong>participants are muted</strong>, listeners can tap to <strong>raise their hand</strong> and alert the admins that they want to speak. Just like calling in to a talk show but with addictive animations.</p>
<div class="blog_video_player_wrap" style="max-width: 400px; margin: 20px auto 20px;">

</div>
<p>Your <strong>bio text</strong> is now visible in the list of participants, which you can use to detail your expertise, interests, or just a little bit about yourself. This info might help admins find a good slot for your questions or comments.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="speaker-and-listener-links" href="#speaker-and-listener-links"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Speaker and Listener Links</h3>
<p>Admins of <strong>public</strong> groups and channels can now create invite links that <strong>open the voice chat</strong> right away. Separate links can be made for <strong>speakers</strong> and <strong>listeners</strong>. This way you won&#39;t need to unmute important guests when they join and they can use a different link to promote the upcoming chat to their communities.</p>

</div>
<p>Voice chats also have optional <strong>titles</strong> which help users see the <strong>topic</strong> of conversation before they join.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="join-as" href="#join-as"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Join As…</h3>
<p>When entering a voice chat in a <em>channel</em>, users have the option to join with their personal account or <strong>appear as one of their channels</strong>. Celebrities and public figures can use this to avoid drawing too much attention to their personal accounts.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>For example, the Presidents of <a href="https://t.me/jairbolsonarobrasil">Brazil</a> and <a href="https://t.me/RTErdogan">Turkey</a> could meet for a talk in <a href="https://t.me/durov">Pavel Durov&#39;s Channel</a> and answer questions from users without the risk of having their chat lists flooded with fan mail.</p>

<p>If you choose the wrong chat by mistake when <strong>forwarding messages</strong>, press the <strong>X</strong> button before sending them to either cancel forwarding or <strong>choose a different chat</strong>.</p>

</div>
<p>You can also <strong>resume playback</strong> from where you left off when listening to <strong>long voice messages</strong>. This was previously available for long videos and long audio tracks, and we thought we&#39;d covered everything but then our grandma signed up.</p>
<p>Last but not least, <strong>Android</strong> users can choose which action is assigned to <strong>swiping left in the chat list</strong>: archiving chats, pinning, muting, deleting or marking them as read. (On iOS, all these swipe actions are always available, depending on which way you swipe.)</p>
