In the Beta version of Telegram for Android with the help of @tgcrawl, lines have been found that are responsible for a new way of authorization in the app.
When logging into Telegram, a user may be required to enter a secret word or phrase. Such codes are specified in an SMS message or in a notification from the Telegram service account on another active session.
On the authorization screen there may be additional hints — for example, the word with which the code phrase begins. In addition, the copied phrase can be quickly pasted into the form using the “Paste” option.
The @tginfo editors suggest that the secret phrase authorization introduction may be related to the new P2PL software, which we detailed here.
