Mark Zuckerberg’s messaging app recently announced major usage changes to the app.
For a couple of weeks, users of the WhatsApp application have been notified of changes in the terms and conditions of use and privacy and of security policies from February 8.
The previous circumstance has unleashed criticism on social networks and many people have questioned how the messaging app captures information or data from users.

This has even led to the app’s download figures falling by up to 11 percent in the first days of January, according to the specialized Sensor Tower platform, and other messaging platforms have gained thousands of new users.
One of the winning apps is Telegram, millions of users have come to this new platform. The main rival of WhatsApp has been obtaining new followers and according to the platform
This application is much more than a way to stay in touch with friends or family. It is also the meeting point with companies, celebrities and serves to save money and keep up to date with the best offers and the latest current information.
These are some of the characteristics of the Telegram Messaging application, perhaps this is the reason why many people have been switching to this platform, which also respects the privacy processes and your data.
Secret cats
At first, Telegram became famous for this possibility. We are talking about private chats or secret chats, which allow you to have conversations with other people with the maximum possible discretion. You can set a self-destruct time for messages, it does not notify with the contact name and it does not allow screenshots.
News channels
Many media and official bodies have a Telegram account and have created a news channel to send free, truthful and verified information directly to those interested. There are also celebrities and brands that use it.
2Gb of file traffic capacity
Since 2014, Telegram users have been able to send files up to 1.5GB each, which turns out to be 93 times bigger than 16MB (which is a totally random number, we have no idea what that could mean).
From now on, you can send an unlimited number of files of any type of up to 2GB each.
Telegram groups get a new dimension with Voice Chats – persistent conference calls that run in parallel to existing text chats. Voice Chats add a live layer of ephemeral talk to the group and can be used as informal lounges or virtual office spaces.https://t.co/08dyFMWok6 pic.twitter.com/13XcszUzob

20.000 stickers
While Telegram has been the go-to place for stickers since they first appeared, until today there was no easy way to see the best stickers in one place. To solve this, we created the new stickers directory, where you can browse and search among the more than 20,000 free high-quality Telegram stickers that have been created in the last 5 years.
Better quizzes
In January we added the questionnaires to the Telegram polls, to allow users to exercise their muscles with the trivia. In recent weeks, we have witnessed an increase in educational tests and questionnaires of a more serious nature created with @QuizBot.
MacOS improvements
Users of Telegram for macOS they can now access shared media directly from redesigned profile pages. Those who have a lot of folders will like the new folder sidebar with Telegram Desktop-style icons.
Profile Videos
Now you can upload a video to your profile and choose the frame you like as your static profile picture in chats. Record yourself in action, or wink and greet people as if you were in a magical Harry Potter photo.
Statistics for groups
Owners of large groups with more than 500 members can now see nice detailed graphs on their activity and growth. The statistics for groups also show a list of top members by number of posts and how many characters their posts have on average.
Multiple accounts in Telegram Desktop
Telegram allows you to log into 3 accounts with different phone numbers without logging out. Our mobile version users have enjoyed this feature since 2017, and today this option is coming to the multiplatform Telegram Desktop app.
