Anyone who values ​​data protection and encrypted communication has probably been using Telegram as a messenger app for a long time.

The WhatsApp alternative impresses with additional features thanks to the new update to version 5.13. For example, messages can only be sent here when the recipient is online. This setting must be approved by the respective user so that the online status can be viewed.

Further innovations at Telegram

With the latest update you can also customize the design of the messenger according to your own ideas:

  • Custom chat background,
  • Colors of the sent messages can be set manually,
  • But you also have design suggestions that you can use.
  • You can now also switch to dark mode even faster using the moon symbol.

WhatsApp is lagging behind

Telegram, for example, offers a “Silent Mode”. Here you can send messages to users without a beep sounding when the message arrives. It is also possible to create private, secret chats. The option to automatically delete messages after a certain period of time has been around for a long time. Messages can also be scheduled and sent at a specific time.
For group chat sufferers who are flooded with messages, Telegram offers the so-called “Slow Mode” - here the group admin can limit the number of messages within a group.

Telegram is therefore a real alternative to WhatsApp.
