In the Beta version of Telegram for Android, any channel administrator can now choose the sender's identity for a post. The selection menu includes the administrator’s personal account, the current channel, and any other public channels owned by the administrator.
Additionally, a new setting called “Show Authors' Profiles” has been added under “Administrators.” When enabled, an icon indicating the sender of the post will appear to the left of the post on the channel. Any channel administrator can manage this option, regardless of their permissions.
The “Sign Messages” setting, which was previously located on the main channel settings screen, is now available in this section. When disabled, the text input field for messages will show “Anonymous Message” instead of “Publication.”

"And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. Since its launch in 2013, Telegram has grown from a simple messaging app to a broadcast network. Its user base isn’t as vast as WhatsApp’s, and its broadcast platform is a fraction the size of Twitter, but it’s nonetheless showing its use. While Telegram has been embroiled in controversy for much of its life, it has become a vital source of communication during the invasion of Ukraine. But, if all of this is new to you, let us explain, dear friends, what on Earth a Telegram is meant to be, and why you should, or should not, need to care. To that end, when files are actively downloading, a new icon now appears in the Search bar that users can tap to view and manage downloads, pause and resume all downloads or just individual items, and select one to increase its priority or view it in a chat. Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. He adds: "Telegram has become my primary news source."
