πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ Telegram beta got updated to version 7.4.0. The update supposes to come with an option to import chats from other messengers (like WhatsApp) and more. Currently, this feature isn't working on every device properly due to a different ways to handle export intents.

To import your chat history from WhatsApp - open a 3 dot menu on the WahtsApp chat menu - click on Export Chat button - select Telegram Beta in the popup window - select the chat or a group on Telegram where you want to import your chat history.

On some devices (tested on Samsung Note 10+, Android 11) this export will send an archive of the chat (means that it is not supported yet) while on others (tested on Google Pixel XL2, Android 11) it will extract the history to the chat on Telegram (as it should work).

You can access this menu from Settings - notification and sounds - notifications for chats. There you can select chats, groups, or channels and configure notification settings for all of them at once or per chat individually.

πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ Group admins can set a timer for group messages to self-destruct on Telegram beta 7.5.0.
This feature can be accessed from a 3dot menu of the group chat. There you can set an auto-delete mode for 24 hours or 7days.
It is also likely that this setting will get more granularity in the future in the next releases. However, it would be also nice to allow all group members to be able to set this timer for their messages as well like it is done on Signal.
