New Delhi, Dec 8: Telegram Messenger on Thursday announced new features in its latest update including ‘No-SIM Signup’ in the country.
The ‘No-SIM Signup’ feature allows users to communicate with others without disclosing their phone numbers to them personally or in mass forums, the company said in a statement. Swiggy Layoffs: Food Delivery Platform May Lay Off Over 250 Employees, Company Says ‘Exits Based on Performance’.
It allows sign up for a Telegram account without a SIM card to further improve users’ safety on the platform and create the highest level of privacy. The users can log in using blockchain-powered anonymous numbers available on the Fragment platform.
Other than ‘No-SIM Signup’, the messaging platform introduced more features including ‘Auto-Delete All Chats’, ‘Topics 2.0’, ‘Temporary QR codes’ and more.
Previously, users were only able to delete individual chats but now with ‘Auto-Delete All Chats’, they can set an auto-delete timer to automatically remove messages in all the new chats.
With the ‘Topics 2.0’ feature, group admins with more than 99 members can organise discussions into topics followed by a two-column mode interface to enable users to find current chats easily while browsing topics.
