Beta 5.11

Telegram is six years old! 🥳

To celebrate, we locked six people in a room and gave them six hours to write this encyclopedia of Telegram (it took 24).

Telegram turns 6 years today. Throughout these years, Telegram stood up for freedom and privacy. We defended what we believe in against tyrannies, kleptocracies and corporations.

Today, 6 years after launch, Telegram is the third largest global messaging app in terms of the number of countries where Telegram is in top 10 Social Networking apps.

Let us celebrate today. Tomorrow we’ll get back to building new features. There’s a lot of exciting work left to do.

This is the latest beta APK ☺️

Today's update brings features to add a little peace, quiet and customization to your chats.

Hold down the Send button to deliver messages with a silenced notification. Your recipient will still see the alert, but won't be woken up or interrupted.

Display your claim to fame with custom admin titles and make group traffic more manageable with Slow Mode. Admins choose how often each member must wait before sending their next message.

Send a single ❤️, 👍, 😒, 😳 or 🥳 and watch as new animated emoji come to life. Toggle looped playback for animated stickers to decrease the RPM of your favorite reactions.

Add timestamps like 0:45 to video captions and replies to automatically create links that play the video from that specific moment.

Android has a fully-redesigned attachment menu, boasting bigger thumbnails and easy gallery access.

iOS users can now set accent colors for night themes, or choose a color-rich Tinted Night theme.
