Telegram 8.0 update brings unlimited live streams viewers, improved sticker panel, and more
Telegram is back with a new update that adds tons of useful features to its instant messaging apps. While the latest update focuses on improving the video streaming experience, the latest update brings unlimited live streaming, caption and encryption sender when transmitting messages, enhanced sticker panel, and much more.
With the latest update, Telegram removes the user cap from group video calls. Now, group video calls can now have an unlimited audience. Telegram was clearly not joking when it said last month it would continue to increase viewership limits ” “until all humans on Earth can join one group call.”

Similar to voice chats, viewers can raise their hands in live streaming and inform administrators that they want to join the broadcast. Another notable change coming with Telegram 8.0 is that users can now control what the sent message will look like.
Users can preview the forwarded message by tapping the “Forward message” label above the message bar. This will open a preview window that shows what the message will look like, as well as other customization options that will allow you to hide the sender’s name or captions in the media messages.
The new update makes it easier to browse for channels. When you reach the end of a channel, swipe up from the bottom to unlock the next unread channel. Next, the best stickers are now easily available and appear on top of the “Recently Used” stickers. The telegram already shows “typing…” and “recording voice message” when a chat partner writes a text or voice message.
Now, the app will also display a “choosing a sticker” status at the top of the conversation where the other party wants the sticker in the sticker section. Finally, Telegram 8.0 adds many animated emojis and countless comments counter for threaded responses.

WhatsApp has pushed a new beta update for Android users, which brings a camera shortcut directly to the gallery sheet to make it easier to access the camera while sending photos or videos. The fresh beta update arrives with version 2.24.24.23, available through the Google Play Beta Program.
Previously, WhatsApp improved the way users send photo and video albums. With that, users can select multiple photos and videos at once, and add captions to entire albums to make it simpler to share media with context.
The new update is adding even more improvements. The camera shortcut, which used to be in the chat bar, is now available directly inside the gallery sheet. It saves time and makes it easier to capture something new without navigating through multiple steps.
Now, when you’re selecting photos or videos to send, you can quickly switch to the camera without leaving the gallery. This new change might feel like an extra step for some users who were used to accessing the camera with a single tap from the chat bar. However, the update aims to combine both the camera and gallery functions into one place.
Notably, not all users will see this new camera shortcut. If you still have the camera shortcut in the chat bar, you won’t see the one in the gallery sheet. This is to avoid clutter and make the app more organized.
This feature is currently available to a limited number of beta testers, and it will be rolled out to more users in the coming days or weeks.
Google Messages introduces a new Backup and Restore feature to make it easier for users to back up and restore their text messages, media, and settings directly within the app. This feature’s strings have been spotted in the Google Messages 20241118_02_RC00 beta version.
Currently, Android users back up their messages through Google One at the system level, but this new update lets users manage backups from within Google Messages itself.
The backup system will offer end-to-end encryption, ensuring that your messages are fully secured. Only you will be able to access the backup, with protection provided by your device’s screen lock.
When signing into the app on a new device, your conversations will automatically restore, providing a seamless transition. However, some devices without a screen lock may not be eligible for encrypted backups.
The backup feature is closely associated with your Google Account and Google One storage, which means you’ll need some extra storage space for backups. While users can choose to turn off backups at any time. Turning off the backup will permanently delete your conversations from your Google Account, although they will still be on your device.
You can also choose to back up media only over Wi-Fi, which can help save mobile data. Additionally, Google Messages will allow you to sync messages across different devices as long as you’re signed into your Google Account.
Aside from this, Google Messages recently rolled out the “Double tap heart ‘feature for Android users. This makes it easier to send a red heart emoji in response to messages.
