Telegram rolled out some nifty features for their new version for both iOS and Android including.. Replace Media, Share vCards, Mark as Unread, 2X Voice Messages, and more.

Replace Media and Add Captions

Sending the wrong picture by accident is rarely fun. On Telegram, it was already possible to delete the message for everyone and send a new one instead. Now you can just replace photos or videos with the correct versions right away.

Double-Time Playback for Voice and Video Messages

You'll like this one if your friends enjoy sending long and thoughtful voice notes. From now on, you can switch to 2X playback and hear people get to the point faster.

Mark as Read or Unread

This offers a quick way to get less important messages out of the way and highlight the chats that require your future attention.

Share Contacts with Multiple Numbers

Sometimes you want to share more info about a contact than just one number. With this update, you can select what data you want to send when sharing a contact. For example, several phone numbers or other vCard fields.

Try sharing a contact that has multiple fields with data to check this out.

One More Thing

When you open a chat from Global Search and then go back, you will return to the search results and keep your position in the list.

And Three More (on Android 💪)

Android users are getting a few extra goodies with version 4.8.10. Tap and hold on profile pictures in the chats list to preview chats:
