telegram voice chats March 2021

Telegram has taken the path of including more and more novelties in less time in your application. Last December they launched the voice chats for groups, where you could enter to participate as in a normal text chat. Now, they have released this feature for channels, allowing them to create their own podcasts.

Voice chats have become all the rage since the launch of Clubhouse. Telegram wanted to collect part of that popularity, and that is why they hurriedly launched this function in the groups. Today they announced that, in addition to being available to groups, the voice chats are also available for channels, as well as that there will be no limits on the number of participants.

Channels can now create voice chats

Thus, the channels now have a kind of public radio in which channel managers can offer chats to million listeners, where anyone can listen to it. To start one of these conversations, it is only necessary to hit Start voice chat if we are administrators of a group or a channel.

These chats are now accessible also after they have happened, saving the conversations and publishing them so that the followers can listen to it again after the event has taken place. If a chat is being recorded, a red light will appear next to it.

If the participants are muted in a voice chat, users can raise your hand and ask administrators for permission to speak. There, administrators can choose who can participate as if it were a press conference with interviews.

Custom links for listeners or speakers

To facilitate participation, administrators may create links to add speakers or listeners, with different links that will make it easier not to have to unmute speakers when joining. Users, when joining, will also be able to choose their name when participating.

Long voice messages will also finally remember when we left them after listening to them. This was already done with videos and audio tracks.

Finally, in this update, Telegram has also included the possibility to choose action by swiping the chats to the left. Currently the option allowed to archive chats, but now we can also choose if we want to set, silence, delete or mark as read.

As we can see, Clubhouse fashion has started to generate strong movements in the competition. Telegram also offers an important advantage over this app, since it is only possible to enter the Clubhouse with an invitation. Anyone can enter Telegram.
