Telegram Messenger, for those that did not know, is an app that lets users get in touch with their friends and family members, allowing the creation of groups consisting of up to 200 people, share videos up to 1GB and much more. The app for Windows Phone was just updated to version 1.1.4 and adds several new improvements. Here’s what the app description has to say:
“Telegram is a messaging app with a focus on speed and security. It’s super-fast, simple, secure and free. Telegram seamlessly syncs across all of your devices and can be used on desktops, tablets and phones alike. You can send an unlimited amount of messages, photos, videos and files of any type (.doc, .zip, .pdf, etc.). Telegram groups have up to 200 people and you can send broadcasts to up to 100 contacts at a time. Be sure to check our website for a list of Telegram apps for all platforms. We built Telegram to make messaging speedy and safe again, without the usual caveats.”
