Good app with one downside. I've been using Telegram for quite some time now and I'm generally really happy with it. the only downside for me is that I cannot change a quick reaction to a message to a different icon/emoji within the chat. I mean, it's a QUICK reaction, so I want to be able to quickly choose the right sticker and not go through three subfolders in the main settings. Please please please can you look into this. It should be an easy fix but it would make a world of difference.

Very unsafe and disappointing app. There are too many bots, and privacy does not feel secure at all. In some cases, even phone numbers are being exposed through bots. Also, only premium users can post stories. A recent update allowed everyone to post stories, but the feature was removed again. This is unfair and frustrating. I have deleted my account and uninstalled the app.😡😡🤬🤬
good app BUT 1. even though I have it unchecked, the app still notifies me of EVERYONE that installs the app. 2. there's no indication that an incoming call is a video call....and when you answer, your camera is automatically on. I'm sure I'm not the only one to imagine how that can lead to unintended consequences 3. there's also some room for improvement in the call connectivity. on the plus side, stickers are Really nice and varied. the app doesn't use much device space.
