Telegram is a popular rival to WhatsApp, having gained a spike in its popularity after WhatsApp’s recent privacy concerns. The app has now enabled voice chat features, which claim to make it better than Clubhouse as well. If you recall, Clubhouse is an invite-only app that is available on iOS and also being rolled out to Android soon. Some of our most favorite celebrities are already a part of it.
With the new voice chat feature on Telegram, the platform wants to make communication better across all of its channels. Hence, these new features will work towards enhancing the experience and users will surely make the move in the coming days.
Record Chats
If all the members cannot join a live chat, admins have the capacity to record the voice calls and publish them later for everyone’s convenience. There will also be a red light indicating that the speaker’s chat is being recorded.
Speak in-between Live Chats
Telegram has the ‘raise hand’ option that helps the speaker know that someone wants to contribute to the conversion. By allowing that, the current speaker can mute himself/herself allowing the new one to speak in-between the conversation.
Choose who can Join
While the voice chat is enabled, users will have the option to join as individuals or be a part of the chat.
Unlimited Voice Chats
There is no limit to who can listen to a voice chat. A number of individuals can join and tune in. Telegram aims to become a popular talking/podcast platform of today’s times.
Create Invite Links
Invite people to your talk by creating links that give them special access. Only admins can do.
