Introduced multi-tab in-app browser and mini app store

Telegram recently released a set of new features that focus on improving the overall user experience. One of the most notable additions to this list of updates is a new in-app browser with multi-tab support. The instant messaging platform also announced that its users will be able to gift friends or family with Telegram Stars. These updates come on the heels of Telegram’s introduction of Copilot support last month.

New Telegram Features

In a blog post, Telegram outlined the new features included in its latest update. The update introduces an in-app browser that lets users open multiple tabs, allowing users to easily switch between minimized and reopened windows. The in-app browser also supports decentralized sites hosted on the Telegram Open Network (TON) on mobile and desktop platforms. Users can return to their chats without losing their place on the webpage.

In addition to the search feature, a new Apps tab has been added, allowing users to browse mini-apps available on the platform. This tab also lists the apps they are currently using and showcases some of the most popular mini-apps. Developers can now upload video demos and screenshots to preview the apps.

In addition, content generated by mini apps, such as leaderboard snapshots or AI-generated videos, can be shared directly as a Telegram story. Stories now include an animated weather widget. Telegram Stars, originally intended for purchasing content in mini apps or paid channel content, can now be gifted to friends or family.

Additionally, when recording a video story with the front camera, users can now use the front flash to light up the screen. Once you update to the latest version of Telegram on your iOS or Android device, a new flash icon will appear in the bottom left corner of the camera interface. Additionally, Telegram has added a feature that lets users choose a cover image for their video story, giving them the option to choose which image will appear first.
