The messaging app Telegram has launched its first major update of 2026. It introduces new artificial intelligence (AI) features and a fresh design for Apple's iOS devices.
A key new tool uses AI to create summaries of long posts or articles inside the app. This allows users to understand the main points without reading the full text. Telegram states the summaries are generated automatically.
The company also redesigned the Telegram interface for iPhones and iPads. The update aims to improve the user experience on iOS, though specific design changes were not detailed.
This move continues Telegram's pattern of adding features to compete with other major messaging platforms.
