Telegram for Android and iOS Updated to Version 11.6
Here’s what’s new in this update:
• Verification from Third Parties
One can now get verification marks not only from the Telegram platform itself, but also from other organizations. First, these organizations must receive verification from Telegram for their bots, and then they will be able to issue such marks to others. The appearance of these marks differs from how official Telegram verification "ticks" are displayed.
The procedure for issuing such marks and obtaining the right to issue them is described on a special page of the official Telegram website.
• Collectible Gifts
Users will be able to convert gifts into unique collectibles. Collectible gifts have special attributes and can be transferred to other users or auctioned on NFT marketplaces.
• Chat Type Filter For Global Search
On the global search screen, users can click the "From all chats" button and choose which chats the application should search for the entered string: all chats, only private dialogues, groups or channels.
• Reactions to Service Messages
Now you can send reactions to service messages: about a new member joining a group, leaving a group, changing a name or chat avatar, a message with a gift, and others.
• Emoji Support for Folder Names
Now you can add emoji to a folder name. To select an emoji, you need to click a button to the right of the folder name on its settings screen. Not only standard emoji are available for selection, but also custom ones. In addition, users can disable animation for added emoji.
• Built-in Camera Gains QR Code Scanning Capability
Premium users can now scan QR codes without leaving the Telegram app. You can only scan the code using the camera that is designed for shooting for stories. There is one more limitation: the QR code must contain a link to the user profile, bot, public group or public channel, that is, to something that has a public username.
• The Ability to Send a Gift to Yourself
Users can now send star gifts to themselves. To do this, go to the "Settings › Send a gift" section and click on your name.
• Video Stories Viewing Bug on iOS is fixed
In Telegram for iOS 11.6 the bug of videostories viewing is fixed.

Translation Settings Disappear from Telegram for iOS
In version 11.13 of Telegram for iOS, the translation feature settings are no longer visible under "Settings › Language".
It’s likely that the settings were hidden because the translation feature has not been working since June 26.
At the same time, new lines found in the source code of Telegram apps suggest that the developers are planning to fundamentally change how translations work: apparently, users will be able to download translation models directly to their devices.

Links From Non-Contacts No Longer Work in Telegram for iOS and macOS
In the latest versions of Telegram for iOS and macOS, links received from unknown users in private chats are displayed as plain text — they are not highlighted and cannot be clicked.
This behavior appears to be an intentional security measure by Telegram to protect users from scams and malicious content.
To make a link functional again, you can:
• Add the sender to your contacts
• Dismiss the banner with action buttons at the top of the chat
• Forward the message to your “Saved Messages” — the link will become clickable there
This change has not been officially documented in Telegram’s changelogs, but it aligns with broader efforts to reduce spam and phishing attempts on the platform.

The Discuss Button Has Disappeared From Channel Profiles on iOS
After the introduction of direct messages to channels, Telegram users on iOS discovered that they no longer have the option to open the discussion group from a channel's profile if discussion is enabled. The button that previously opened the discussion group now opens the direct messages chat.
The editorial team of @tginfo does not know whether this is a bug or intended behavior by the developers. The issue likely appeared in Telegram for iOS version 11.12, when channels got direct messages.
For channels without direct messages enabled, the button still opens the discussion group.
It is still possible to open the group linked to a channel with discussion enabled. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Open any post of the channel and go to the comments.
2. Press and hold the “Back” button. The app will then show a list including both the channel itself and the group linked to it.
3. Select the group.
