New Delhi, July 27, 2020 –
WhatsApp’s closest rival Telegram has rolled out a substantial update, adding Profile Videos along with improved People Nearby features, unlimited file sharing with up to 2GB per file and more.
With the new update, a user can change their profile picture into a profile video. The video will play when someone opens the user’s profile, and it is possible to choose a specific frame from the video to be displayed in chats, the company said in a statement on Sunday.
Telegram is increasing the size limit for files shared on the app, from 1.5GB per file – the limit that had been in place since 2014 – to 2GB for any file type.
The update has also improved the People Nearby feature, which now also indicates the distance between the user and any detected contacts.
