Telegram encrypted messaging app updated with material design and security features
Telegram app just received an update to v.2.0 and it presents a new material design, and account self-destruct, among other new features. The app is a secure messaging platform that encrypts messages from end-to-end.
In the full changelog you can see the updates Telegram got:
- Material design
- Cloud search for messages
- It sets a period of inactivity after which your account will self-destruct
- It determines who can see your Last seen time.
The user interface is probably Telegram’s more important change, at least visually speaking, and on a side note, the automatic self-destruct you can flexibly set is a great addition. The feature lets you set a certain period of time when, if there is no activity; your entire account will be permanently deleted.
The app is free to use and its creators say they will never use ads to make money. You can give it a shot in the Google Play Store by accessing it through the widget below.
