elegram is updating its messaging app with options for auto-deleting messages, expiring invite links, and new unlimited groups, the company shared in a blog post. Much like Signal, Telegram received a burst of new users in the confusion over WhatsAppβs privacy policy and now the company is adopting features that were already part of its competitorsβ apps, features which offer more security and privacy. Auto-deleting messages were already possible in Telegramβs encrypted Secret Chats, but this new update for iOS and Android adds the option to make messages disappear in any kind of chat. Auto-delete can be enabled inside of chats, and set to delete either 24 hours or seven days after messages are sent. Auto-delete wonβt remove every message though; if a message was sent before the feature was turned on, itβll stick around. Telegramβs competitors have had similar features: WhatsApp introduced a feature in 2020 and Signal has had disappearing messages since at least 2016.
From the Files app, scroll down to Internal storage, and tap on WhatsApp. Once youβre there, go to Media and then WhatsApp Stickers. Donβt be surprised if you find a large number of files in that folderβit holds your personal collection of stickers and every one youβve ever received. Even the bad ones.Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen to Select all. If you want to trim the fat and grab only the best of the best, this is the perfect time to do so: choose the ones you want to export by long-pressing one file to activate selection mode, and then tapping on the rest. Once youβre done, hit the Share button (that βless thanβ-like symbol at the top of your screen). If you have a big collectionβmore than 500 stickers, for exampleβitβs possible that nothing will happen when you tap the Share button. Be patientβyour phoneβs just struggling with a heavy load.On the menu that pops from the bottom of the screen, choose Telegram, and then select the chat named Saved messages. This is a chat only you can see, and it will serve as your sticker bank. Unlike WhatsApp, Telegram doesnβt store your favorite stickers in a quick-access reservoir right beside the typing field, but youβll be able to snatch them out of your Saved messages chat and forward them to any of your Telegram contacts. This also means you wonβt have a quick way to save incoming stickers like you did on WhatsApp, so youβll have to forward them from one chat to the other.
