Web bots are already on Android
The Beta version (t.me/betainfoen/928) of Telegram for Android has support for Web bots.
Using the test bot @asmico_attach_bot, you can understand how such bots work and get familiar with their interface (t.me/tginfoen/1377).
A few ideas for Web bots:
— A bot for drawing graffiti.
— Bot to apply filters to webcam selfies.
— Bot to record a voice message with a voice change.
— Bot for attaching files from Google Drive.
We described web bots and what are they capable of in detail in our article (tginfo.me/explaining-web-bots-en/).

Flexible album management
The Beta version of Telegram for iOS and Android now has flexible album settings. You can drag and drop photos and videos to change their order in the album before they are sent directly, delete unwanted ones, add a text caption, and send media without grouping or compressing them.
Download Manager
In Beta version of Telegram for Android, a «Downloads» tab has appeared in the search. It contains both files that have already been downloaded locally and files that are currently being downloaded.
In the manager, you can pause all or just some downloads, cancel the download, change the priority of the download queue, delete files from the cache and view a chat message with the downloaded file. While downloading files, the icon in the header of the application (in the list of dialogs) will help you to quickly go to the section.
Redesign of t.me links
Links opened in the browser for unauthorized users like t.me have received a redesign. They have an animated gradient background, which is used by default in messenger clients.
All screens got a new design:
— User, group, channel and bot profiles.
— Viewing messages in public groups and channels.
— Viewing a specific message by its link.
— Redirect for stickerpacks, themes, and backgrounds.
Also, what we found interesting:
— In the preview of channels (from links like t.me/s/), while scrolling page, the background itself also moves.
— In the preview of interactive backgrounds with a given palette in the background they themselves are displayed.
