Telegram 10.5.0 update revamps voice & video call animations

Telegram’s latest update, version 10.5.0, has an updated look, especially when you use it for voice and video calls. It also brings the “Thanos Snap” animation for deleting messages for Android users. One could say it’s a blend of aesthetics and functionality. These features are now available and rolling out for Android users.

Telegram revamps voice and video calls with the latest update

While messaging remains Telegram’s primary function, the app also emphasizes voice and video calls. With its recent update, Telegram has revamped the user interface for these calls, introducing new animations that provide a modernized appearance. Moreover, the streamlined user interface is more efficient, and this ultimately results in improved performance. So, one could say that the redesign isn’t just eye candy; it’s also kinder to your device because it promises longer battery life and smoother performance even on older phones.

The company announced in a blog post that the latest update brings a fresh look and feel to calls. It comes with dynamic backgrounds that adapt to the call’s status and a redesigned interface that’s easier on your battery and older devices. Call quality has also been boosted, and more improvements are on the horizon for 2024. The popular “Thanos Snap” vaporizing animation is coming to Android. It was previously only available on iOS with last month’s update; however, it is now making its way to Android and becoming the new standard across both platforms.

There’s more to it

While the spotlight shines on the animation revamp and a modernized appearance with the update, it has more to offer. Telegram has introduced numerous enhancements for bots in its latest update. Now, bots can respond to messages, handle reactions, manage quotes and links, and even send replies across various chats and topics.

Over the last few months, Telegram has been on a roll. The app has consistently brought a slew of new features. These include options to personalize profile colors, free audio transcription for everyone, and more.
