Reactions without limits, emoji statuses and more
⁠
Telegram for Android, iOS and macOS, as well as the Unigram client, have been updated to version 9.0. Telegram Desktop has been updated to version 4.2.

Limitless Reactions
• All users had dozens of new reactions, including those that previously could only be sent with a Telegram Premium subscription.
• An updated menu for choosing reactions can be opened — to make it easier to view many new emoji.
• The reactions you use most often are automatically moved to the top of the list.
• Premium subscribers will now be able to use any of the thousands of custom emoji as reactions.
• Premium users can now send up to 3 reactions per message.
• Updated reactions menu works only in private chats and groups.
• Group admins can choose whether custom kits are available as reactions in their community.

Emoji Profile Statuses
• Users with a Telegram Premium subscription can set an animated status emoji next to their name.
• Status will show what mood the user is in or what they are doing.
• You can set one of seven default statuses that change color depending on the Telegram theme, — or choose from an endless variety of custom emojis.
• To set your status, click on your Premium icon above your chat list or go to Settings.
• If you want to turn on the status for a certain period of time, press and hold the selected emoji.

Sign-in improvements
• Users who often log out of the Telegram application and log in again will now be able to receive authorization codes not in SMS, but by e-mail.
• An alternative is to use the — «Sign in with Apple» or «Sign in with Google» feature.
• Improved registration and login process on iOS devices: users are greeted with an updated interface and smooth animations similar to the Android client.

New links to user profiles
• Now a new unique link format is available in Telegram — username.t.me.
• The novelty is intended for those who want to emphasize the username (or prefer not to look for the symbol / on the keyboard).

Customizing the Boot Order on Android
• Users can now reorder downloads in the download manager by raising or lowering their priority.
• To do this, just hold and hold the desired line, and then move it. The file at the top of the list is always downloaded first.
• Previously, this feature has already been implemented in the application for iOS.

New design elements in the Android app
• Opening, closing and changing media files on Android is now accompanied by a new smooth animation.
• Owners of Android devices with system version 13 and above can select a themed Telegram app icon that automatically adjusts to the dark theme and primary color on the device.
