    One of the popular messaging apps, WhatsApp's rival Telegram, is known to be ahead in many areas compared to its rivals. And it seems like Telegram wants to continue to bring new features to make the app usage experience better for its users. Currently, Telegram is pushing a new update that brings a bunch of goodies to the app.

    With the new update, Telegram adds the ability to let you repost Stories that show up in your feed. On top of that, you can even record a video message over them, which is TikTok-esque. After unlocking Telegram Stories for free users, the new feature to let users repost Stories is a significant update and makes the feature more useful.

    You can repost Stories from your friends or the channels you follow. When you repost, you can add text, emoji, and even custom drawings to make it unique. For premium users, in the new update, Telegram lets them change the profile page's background color; doing so affects the message box's background as well. Besides, users can also change the background theme of each chat individually.

    If you are a free user, then there is good news that voice-to-text isn't a premium feature anymore. You can view a story, react in channels using custom emojis, highlight codes, and more. The ability to react with custom emojis will add a personal touch to each channel. Moreover, when you follow a channel, you will also see a list of channels to follow. The Android version of the Telegram app will be updated soon.
