🧵 The ALL-NEW Telegram Browser is now available, which also supports TON sites (Crypto).
Pages opened with the in-app browser can now be collapsed and reopened from the bottom bar, allowing seamless navigation between messages, websites, instant view articles, and mini apps.
Telegram's browser supports decentralized websites hosted on TON across all mobile and native desktop apps, making Web3 readily accessible to our nearly one billion monthly users.
—> Now, when you receive a notification while reading an article, viewing a web page, or playing a game, you can check your messages and return to your previous activity without losing progress. Additionally, you can add bookmarks to revisit a page later.

🧵 Telegram has announced their own "Mini App Store" inside the Mobile app.
Developers can now upload video demos and screenshots for their mini-app previews to let users know what to expect. (Seen on Picture)
Mini apps can now create custom story content—such as AI-generated videos, achievements, or leaderboard snapshots—that users can share directly as a Telegram Story. This feature enables the development of new types of apps and helps existing ones expand their reach among users' contacts. (Shown in Video 2)

🧵 Telegram Stars let you buy digital goods in mini apps or access paid content in channels.
Users celebrating their birthday will be highlighted at the top of a special section. Gifted stars will appear in the chat as a beautifully animated gift box.
—> This means that Telegram now has its own currency in the app (besides Crypto), which is integrated with the all-new Mini App Store.

🧵The "uninteresting" features that also got announced were:
Weather Widget in Stories and Flash when Recording Video Messages.
These really don't need any explaination since their title pretty much define the feature.
⬇️ But if you're interested, then the videos below showcase the features.
