Telegram, in its latest blog post, shared that the app is rolling out a new update, bringing in new features and improvements. It has added a shareable chat link feature that will users to create and share a link to the chat folders that they want their friends or colleagues to join. The invitees can add the folder and join all its chats with just one tap. Each chat folder comes with multiple invite links with access to different chats. Users can even name a chat folder like Office/Work or Friends. It's similar to naming a chat group.

Furthermore, the app also brings fast scrolling of attachments by simply scrolling down on the date bar as well as read time for topic-enabled groups that shows when a message has been read by group participants. The app also adds improved UI that lets users create a group even without adding participants, and new animation for profiles on newer iPhone models, which gets slid into the dynamic island when profiles and info pages are scrolled down.
