Telegram developers continue to add new features to the messenger, making communication even more convenient and secure. This time, the update released at the end of December introduced a one-time listen feature for voice messages.
In addition to the disappearing voice messages feature, the developers updated the call design—the interface now looks brighter—and added optimization that helps save battery power during calls. Another interesting innovation is the dissolve effect when deleting messages, making the deletion process more visually pleasing. Also, in this update, Telegram introduced the largest expansion of tools for creating bots in the platform’s history. Developers now have even more opportunities for automation and creating interesting features within the messenger.

Now, while recording a voice message, you can make it available for only one listen. To do this, record the audio as usual by pressing the microphone button, then swipe up and select the icon with the number “1”. The recipient will immediately see that the message can only be listened to once. After that, the recording will automatically disappear from both chats and receive the status “expired message.” This way, you can share confidential information without worrying about it being saved or listened to again.

It is worth noting that the one-time listen feature only works in private chats. It is currently unavailable in groups and channels. By the way, a similar feature was previously added to WhatsApp. Now Telegram is also taking a step towards greater privacy, expanding the protection of its users’ personal conversations.
