San Francisco, April 23: Telegram Messenger has released major updates to its app with features like shareable chat folders, custom wallpapers, and more. According to the company, the new update will allow users to share entire chat folders with a link, create custom wallpapers for individual chats, use web apps in any chat, and more.
Chat folders can now be shared with a link, inviting friends and colleagues to dozens of workgroups, news feed collections, and more. With one tap, users will be able to add the folder and instantly join all your chats. "You can include any public chat, as well as any chat where you have admin rights to add people," Telegram said in a blog post.

You can set a custom wallpaper in any 1 on 1 chat. To change the wallpaper, go to the chat header and click 'Set wallpaper' on Android, or open a profile and tap 'Change wallpaper' ' on iOS. Furthermore, Telegram is also working on 'better bots'. WhatsApp Update: Meta-owned IM Platform To Introduce 'Sticker Maker' Tool To All iOS Users.
