Telegram Premium Subscription Development Surfaced for Once More
Telegram, one of the most popular texting and chatting apps in the world, is apparently considering introducing a premium subscription for its users. It’s a trend that might be replicated by other messaging apps. We’ve heard rumours regarding a possible Telegram Premium tier subscription in the past. Alessandro Paluzzi, a well-known developer, has now disclosed more details on the subject.
Details about Telegram Premium Subscription
It’s worth mentioning that if you download the Telegram app right now, you’ll be greeted with the statement, “Telegram is free forever. No ads. No subscription fees.” However, given recent events, this could prove to be incorrect.
Telegram is working on a new ‘Telegram Premium‘ subscription, according to Alessandro’s Twitter account. Users would be able to unlock new reactions and other features as a result of this. The developer also included a screenshot of the Telegram Premium option on the smartphone.
This could imply that the present reactions and app features would remain unrestricted. However, there may be extra reactions that customers will have to pay to unlock. This is a business model that other social media texting apps, such as WhatsApp and Signal, could readily follow.
It’s worth noting, though, that while reactions and stickers are widely used on Telegram, they aren’t on Signal or WhatsApp. As a result, while other sites could adopt the premium subscription model for some reactions and more, it is unlikely to be as effective.
Regardless, Telegram has not yet confirmed anything. Companies like Telegram, on the other hand, couldn’t keep providing free services indefinitely. To stay afloat, these companies require a stable income strategy. WhatsApp may also introduce a paid subscription alongside an ad-supported free version. WhatsApp was rumoured to be working on integrating advertisements into WhatsApp Stories. It’s possible that it will come true.

Recently, pre-orders for the Apple Vision Pro were started. According to Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst has reported sales of around 160,000 to 180,000 units of the Vision Pro. In context to the sales of Apple Vision Pro, Netflix Co-CEO Greg Peters revealed in an interview that there is no need for the Netflix app in Apple’s VR headset.
In that interview, Peters also defined that the number of subscribers can’t justify the attempts to port an app for a platform. In the future, there may be a Netflix app for Apple’s VR headset, but currently, Netflix is adopting a wait-and-see approach. For now, YouTube and Spotify have no plans for dedicated apps.
As we also mentioned in the recent post of the Apple Vision Pro, you can use the apps via the browser in the Vision Pro. Apple’s own Apple TV+ streaming services are available on the Apple Vision Pro, which features “Apple Immersive Video” with Spatial Audio and 180° 3D footage in 8K resolution.
Similarly, Netflix has also a VR app which was launched in back 2015, that also offers VR Content and includes a 360° video for the Stranger Things Series, but for now, it’s not available in Apple Vision Pro. Netflix has a ton of VR movies that you can also check out.

WhatsApp has undergone notable changes, introducing new colors and status updates for both its website and app. Whatsapp is currently in the process of rolling out a fresh update through the TestFlight beta program, named version 24.1.10.76. Within the app’s settings, the version is identified as 2.24.1.76, while the TestFlight build stands at 24.1.10(555067882).
WhatsApp beta for Android, in its 2.24.2.11 version, is rolling out a significant feature. Users can now create and share polls within their channels, fostering interactive engagement by collecting feedback, opinions, and preferences directly from their followers. The latest WhatsApp beta test for iOS, marked as version 24.1.10.76, is also geared up to incorporate this polling feature.
WhatsApp ensures that the choices made by channel followers during voting remain secure and anonymous. Currently available to beta testers, the feature to share polls in channels can be accessed by installing the latest version of WhatsApp beta for iOS and other Android phones via the TestFlight app. It will be available to everyone in the coming days.
While polls on various platforms often disappear within 24 hours, it remains to be seen whether WhatsApp will adopt a similar approach or introduce its own unique twist.
