Prize fund: $60,000 for the first round.
Deadline: 23:59 on February, 14 (Dubai Time)
Task: Identify and fix imperfections in Telegram for Android β glitches, bugs, sloppy animations, instances of slow speed. Your work should result in meaningful and noticeable improvement from a userβs perspective.
This is a public reincarnation of our 2019 contest, now available for everyone.
Details: Download the source code of Telegram and fix the imperfections you identified. On the final day of the competition, compile your own version of Telegram and upload the APK to @ContestBot, together with a link to your forkβs pull request on GitHub and a description of improvements implemented.
The more imperfections / glitches / bugs you identify and fix, the higher the reward (provided the submitted code follows the same style as the existing code base). The gravity of fixed issues and the difficulty of eliminating them will be taken into account.
You may also improve existing functionality. A sample task of this type could include rewriting the camera module used in the attachment menu and for recording video messages using Camera 2 API or CameraX, while ensuring backward compatibility with Android 4.x.
You will have to proactively search for issues (potentially getting feedback from users/designers/testers or checking out Bugs and Suggestions) and find creative ways to fix imperfections without causing negative side effects to Telegramβs performance or usability.
