FAKE: "Telegram Ads Will Get Images and Carousel Galleries"
Some channels are spreading rumors claiming Telegram is preparing to introduce a new ad format inside the messenger. Particularly, interactive image carousels, ads between posts, and higher character limits are mentioned, along with other numerous additions.
For the source of the claims, the channels reference a Telegram story from Sales Manager at Magnetto․pro, an ad agency that specializes in Telegram Ads.
When asked by @tginfo's editors, a source closely related to Telegram insisted the claims are false, since the messenger isn't working at implementing such a functionality right now.
Recently, Telegram introduced a big refresh to the Ads platform, allowing advertizers to buy Telegram Ads in more countries using TON cryptocurrency. This might indicate the Ad Platform is still under active development — the company continues to explore new ways to monetize on its path to becoming profitable.

Telegram takes the top spot in the Chinese Google Play rankings
Pavel Durov commented on the removal of Telegram from the Chinese App Store. According to him, the total number of downloads for the messenger has not decreased, and the app holds the top position in the Chinese Google Play top charts from the number of installs. Users from China use VPNs to circumvent the ban.
Durov has also shared his theory on why apps were removed from the App Store in China: the government is forcing iPhone users to switch to devices from local companies like Xiaomi. Android does not have a strict tie-in to the manufacturer's app store, allowing users to install apps from other sources.
For iOS users, the option to use the web version of the messenger remains available.
