Secure Group Calls. Telegram's secure calls can be easily expanded to hold up to 200 users – all protected by end-to-end encryption.

Telegram calls can be used for anything from spontaneous chats to job interviews:
• Add other users to an active call by tapping in the top corner.
• Start a call with several users via the 'Calls' tab or Settings > Recent Calls – tap 'New Call' and select multiple people.
• Send a link to the call to create scheduled meetings or invite multiple groups.

Group Calls: Encryption Emoji. Telegram Calls are protected by end-to-end encryption to ensure your conversations are 100% private.

To confirm this, simply compare the emoji on your screens – if they match for all participants, the call is completely secure.

The emoji shown in the call will update any time a user joins or leaves.

Group Calls: Invite via Link. Telegram Calls support invite links – which allow you to schedule calls in advance, invite users from several chats and let others join at their own convenience.

To create a call link ahead of time, go to the 'Calls' tab or Settings > Recent Calls and tap Start New Call > Create Call Link.

To share a link to an active call, tap 'Invite Via Link' at the bottom of the list of participants.

Call links can also be converted to a scannable QR code.

Granular Gift Settings. In Settings > Privacy and Security > Gifts, you can:
• Add a gift icon to the message bar for you and your chat partners.
• Control whose gifts are shown on your profile.
• Select which gift types other users can send you – like 'Limited-Edition' or 'Unique'.
