Telegram continues to expand its capabilities and provides developers with new tools for creating applications and games within the framework of the platform. In the coming weeks, Messenger will introduce 10 new features for Mini Apps that will open up wide horizons for developers to create and innovate.

What's new?
Full-screen mode
Users will be able to enjoy content in full-screen format, which is especially important for video editors and multimedia applications. This will improve the user experience and make the interaction with applications more fun.

Shortcuts on the home screen
Developers will be able to create shortcuts for their applications, which will simplify user access to them. This will significantly increase the usability and speed of interaction.

Subscription plans via the web
The ability to implement subscriptions through a web application will allow developers to monetize their applications more efficiently by giving users access to exclusive content.

Access to geolocation
With user permissions, applications will be able to use geolocation data, which will open up new opportunities for creating interactive and personalized services.

Device orientation data
This feature will help developers adapt the interfaces of their web applications depending on the orientation of the device, improving user interaction.

Access to emoji status
Applications will be able to use the status of users' emojis, which will add an element of personalization and emotional connection to communication.

Media sharing
The new media sharing feature will allow users to easily share images and videos inside apps, making them more interactive and engaging.

Sending gifts
Developers will be able to implement the function of sending virtual gifts, which will add an element of gamification and increase user engagement.

Extended messaging limits
Increased messaging limits will allow users to communicate more freely, without fear of exceeding limits.

Monetization of advertising
This feature will allow developers to earn money on their applications by implementing advertising posters, which will create additional sources of income.

Availability of functions
Approximate deadlines for the implementation of all new developments
The last two items — extended messaging limits and advertising monetization — are already available to developers. The remaining features are expected within 2-4 weeks, which will create a wave of innovations and opportunities for content creators on the platform.
