A rather underrated feature of the world’s favorite chat app, Telegram, is the ability to pin messages. By pinning a message, it stays at the top of your chat list, allowing for quick and easy access. You can pin messages in both private chats and group chats, which is incredibly convenient.

People often pin messages, particularly conversation threads they want to revisit or links they don’t have time to check immediately. After pinning the chat, users can easily access it and unpin it once they’ve completed their tasks. Groups tend to pin important messages as well so that all members have the opportunity to read them.

Pinning a Message in Telegram

The process of pinning a message in Telegram is quite straightforward, making it a feature frequently utilized. Whether in individual or group chats, the steps to pin are the same.

  1. Navigate to the chat you wish to pin in Telegram.

  4. Finalize your action by tapping “PIN.”

  5. Your chat will now stay at the top of your messaging screen, ready for you to interact with it. Once it’s no longer needed, simply click the “x” icon and choose “Unpin.”

Telegram chats offer more functionalities than you might think. Here are several additional tips and tricks that will enhance your experience with Telegram.

Editing Messages Sent in Telegram

An uncommon yet advantageous feature in Telegram is the option to edit messages after they have been sent. If you’ve realized a significant typo in a message sent to a group or an important conversation, you can correct it even after sending it.

  1. Access the Telegram chat you wish to modify.
    354.6354.6
  2. Press and hold on the chat.
    354.7354.7
  3. From the dialog box, choose “edit” (represented by a pencil icon).
    354.8354.8
  4. Make the necessary changes and tap the “save” icon (checkmark icon).
    354.9354.9

Once edited, the message updates for all participants, and an edited pencil icon indicates this change.

Respond to Messages from the Telegram Home Screen

Just as you can reply to SMS notifications directly from your phone’s “Home” screen, Telegram allows you to do the same. Although you must enable this feature first, it can save valuable time if you tend to respond quickly.

  1. Launch Telegram and go to “Settings.”
    354.10354.10
  2. Click on “Notifications and Sounds.”
    354.11354.11
  3. Activate Notifications for chats.
    354.12354.12

This setting provides a notification on your “Home” screen whenever a message is received. You can then easily tap that message to respond directly.

Read Telegram Messages Discreetly

If you find yourself unable to resist reading a message but lack the time for an extended conversation, you can secretly view Telegram messages. The method mirrors that of other messaging apps—simply enable airplane mode.

  1. Allow Telegram to download the message as you normally would.
    354.13354.13
  2. Activate “Airplane mode” on your device.
    354.14354.14
  3. Access and read your Telegram message.
    354.15354.15
  4. Close Telegram until you’re ready for the read receipt to be delivered.

Utilizing “Airplane mode” is a classic technique that remains effective.

Concealing Your Last Active Time on Telegram

There are occasions when you might log into Telegram but prefer not to let specific friends know. The motivations vary and are likely all legitimate, making it beneficial to have the option to hide your “Last Seen” status.

  1. Launch Telegram and navigate to “Settings.”
    354.16354.16
  2. Choose “Privacy and Security.”
    354.17354.17
  3. Adjust “Last Seen & Online.”
    354.18354.18

In the “Last Seen” setting, you can decide who can see your information and even set exceptions to any rules established. It’s a handy little feature that is useful at times.

Organize Your Chats Using Hashtags in Telegram

  1. Access a message in Telegram.
    354.19354.19
  2. Select the “vertical ellipsis” (three-dotted icon) located in the top right section to reach the search feature.
    354.20354.20
  3. Enter the “hashtag” (#) symbol followed by a relevant term.
    354.21354.21

You can now search by that hashtag, and others in the group can do the same.

Disable GIF Autoplay in Telegram

Numerous users dislike GIFs as they find them to be excessive. They think…

Most of the time, they can be incredibly annoying and not particularly humorous. The capability to prevent them from auto-playing and flashing or moving on your phone is crucial. Here’s how to activate this setting.

  1. Launch Telegram and go to “Settings.”
    354.22
    354.22
  2. Next, tap on “Data and Storage.”
    354.23
    354.23
  3. Disable “Auto-play media GIFs” by toggling it off.
    354.24
    354.24

Now you can relish in a GIF-free experience on Telegram. While you can still view GIFs upon selection, they will no longer flash at you until you manually initiate them.

To wrap up, pinning messages in Telegram is quite straightforward and it helps your chosen chats rise above the rest, aiding in organization. Additionally, if you are aware of your options such as sorting through hashtags, editing messages, managing animated GIFs in chats, and more, handling your chat messages is rather simple. The shortcuts also enhance efficiency, allowing you to respond directly from the “Home” screen.
