The theme for individual chat

Telegram has had a chat themes feature for a long time, following chat themes it can be applied to all chat rooms so users cannot install special themes for different individual chats.

The new chat themes feature allows users to change the theme in each individual chat room. For now, there are only eight colorful chat theme designs that users can choose to apply to individual chat rooms.

Each of these chat themes has a unique background color and chat bubble. In addition, each chat theme is also equipped with day (light) and night (dark) modes.

This theme will also follow the dark mode that users apply to the Telegram application. "This way you can set different themes for chats with coworkers and family members," Telegram wrote.

The choice of new chat themes will be applied on both sides. For example, when you change the theme in a chat room with a friend named Anna, then automatically, Anna's chat room with you will also follow the selected theme. Vice versa. The chat themes feature on Telegram works similarly to chat themes in Telegram direct message (DM).

Interactive Emojis

After presenting animated emojis, now Telegram also brings a new interactive emoji feature for individual chats.

While animated emojis allows users to send emojis that move, interactive emojis allow users to send emojis that can provide interactive and vibrating effects.

Currently, new interactive emojis are available for the fireworks, love, thumbs up, balloon, party popper, and the pile of poo emojis.

To be able to use these interactive emojis, users only need to send one of the previously mentioned emojis to an individual chat room.

For example, a user sends a firework interactive emoji. Then, tap the emoji. Then, the fireworks emoji will "explode", giving the effect of more fireworks on the user's phone screen and the recipient of the message.

"Furthermore, if you and your friends open a chat room, animations and vibrations will play simultaneously on your device, so you feel close even when you are far apart," Telegram wrote.

However, both the chat theme and interactive emoji features can only be enjoyed if the user and the user's friends are both using the latest version of the Telegram application.

Read receipt in the group

Telegram is also rolling out a read receipt feature for small groups. It is not explained what the maximum number of members from the small group category itself is.

Usually, messages sent by group members will be marked with a double tick icon, if they have been read by one other member.

Now, with the read receipt feature, users can now find out which group members have read the messages they sent to the chat room.

The trick, the user just presses the message sent to the chat room, then clicks the "tick two" option. There, the user can see who has read the user's message.

"To protect user privacy, read receipts in small groups are only stored for 7 days after the message is sent," Telegram wrote.

It is possible that users will need to wait for this Telegram update in the next few days. Because usually, new features are rolled out gradually.
