Telegram WebK was updated to version 1.5

1️⃣ Introducing support for Multiple Tabs – a first for Telegram Web Apps – customizing how you browse Telegram to increase comfort and productivity.

• Open several tabs or browser windows to view multiple chats or channels simultaneously.
• Organize your Telegram workflow on multiple monitors by moving tabs to different screens.
• Use ⌘/Ctrl + click or middle-click on any conversation in your chat list to open it in a separate tab.

All messages and content are seamlessly synced across the tabs. To use multiple tabs on Safari, kindly consider switching to another browser for the best experience. Due to Safari’s technical limitations, the WebK app can still only be used there in a single tab.

2️⃣ WebK gets even more stylish, adding:

• Animated placeholders when loading the chat list.
• Scrolling profile pictures in groups that move up and down with their messages.
• Menu redesigns with beautiful new blur effects.
• Colored reply previews that match the color of your chat partners' names.

This update also includes several bug fixes, removing issues with:
- Incorrect unread values
- Visual errors in placeholders
- Failing to mark messages as read
- Performance drops when returning to previous chats.
- and many more 🛠

Unigram 8.8 comes with a shiny new interface, designed by Telegram, to perfectly match Windows 11 design language.

Bot API 6.2

Custom Emoji
• Bots can identify custom emoji sent by Telegram Premium users via the new type "custom_emoji" and field custom_emoji_id added to the MessageEntity class.
• Added the method getCustomEmojiStickers to obtain information about specific emoji.
• Added the fields type and custom_emoji_id to the Sticker class.
• Added sticker_type as a new field for StickerSet and as a new parameter for createNewStickerSet.

Web Apps
• Implemented support for native dialog windows including alerts, popups with custom buttons and confirmation messages.
• A confirmation dialog can now be shown when users close the web app. The dialog can be toggled via the enableClosingConfirmation and disableClosingConfirmation functions.
• Added the field is_premium to the WebAppUser class — the standard User class already included this field, see version 6.1.

• Added has_restricted_voice_and_video_messages to the Chat class to support the new premium setting.

• And more, see the full changelog for details:

https://core.telegram.org/bots/api-changelog#august-12-2022

Note: The documentation for createNewStickerSet and StickerSet no longer mentions the contains_masks parameter and field respectively. In both instances, contains_masks will continue to work for backward compatibility but developers should use sticker_type instead.
