😭 Apple Throws a Spanner in the Works //
Pavel Durov, Founder of Telegram, claimed that Apple had demanded to cut the new update by removing Telemoji, which represent higher quality vector-animated versions of the standard emoji. However, Durov believes that Apple made a strange move, as Telemoji would have "significantly enriched their ecosystem."
In addition, Durov said that 10 emoji packs have been added to Telegram, as well as support for custom emoji, which is "the first step of the upcoming visual revolution on Telegram."
In just a few weeks, these emoji will become available as reactions to messages and as a status next to one's name.
Telegram Premium users will be the first to try these features.
