Another big update for the community. Enjoy!
Teams Pre-Release
For those who have been asking for Teams, this update is for you. We've taken a big step towards a public release of our Teams / Shared Workspaces product.
Here's a sneak peak of what we've accomplished:
[ Schedule a demo ]
New dropdown menu for creating groups/channels, adding chats to workspaces, adding folders to workspace. The settings button will now launch the workspaces settings modal directly.
You can add thumbnail when you create a workspace
New Sign in Design
You can now filter by chat types when adding a chat to a workspace
Additionally, we made adding chats already in the workspace a little bit smarter. Now, if a chat exists in the workspace but does not exist in the current folder you're adding chats to, we will remove that chat from its previous folder instead of preventing you from selecting that chat.
Improved memory usage
Workspace sidebar displays total unread, unmuted chats now instead of total unread, unmuted messages.
Fixed: chats are reliably displayed in workspaces. Previously they would sometimes disappear.
Fixed: archived chats appear in workspaces
Fixed: user default notification settings are now being respected
Fixed: copying chat bubble text no longer copies the timestamp
Fixed: when searching for a chat or message, if you press 'enter' with no chat currently highlighted, the app will take you to the first result.
Fixed: if you leave a group a chat using the dropdown in the chat header, you will be redirected to the home screen and the chat will be removed from the chat list.
Fixed: various RU and ES translations
Another big update for the community. Enjoy!
Scheduled Messages
We've integrated Telegram's scheduled messages so that you can now send a message to a chat at a later date. Right now, you can send a scheduled message by pressing cmd+shift+enter
or ctrl+shift+enter
(depending on your platform) after typing in a message.
Improved image, videos, and gif sizing within the media viewer
Fix being unable to message certain chats
Fix ordering of folders when moving a chat to folder
Fix scrolling modal when moving chat to workspace
Fix scrolling bot commands preview
Use native scrolling styling
Allow searching for Saved Messages. Previously you would have to search for your own name.
Reminders
We're extremely excited to announce reminders! Reminders are essentially a type of scheduled message that is sent to yourself (ie Saved Messages) at a later point time.
Telefuel treats reminders differently in three ways:
Let's walk through an example.
Matt is in conversation with Alpha who wants a couple days to think over a proposal. Matt will follow-up the following day, so he sets a reminder:
Matt creates the reminder
When reminder is sent, the chat with Alpha is marked as unread.
Shared Notes
This is another exciting feature that when combined with Reminders can create powerful workflows for your messaging communications. Whether you're in a private or group chat, you can now write notes into the chat details sidebar.
There are two types of notes:
With private notes, only you are able to view the notes, whereas shared notes are visible to all members of the chat and synchronized in realtime.
Moreover, you can use Github flavor markdown to style your text, add hyperlinks, and even create todo lists for your meetings and follow-ups.
Shared Media Panel
This is another parity feature with the official Telegram clients. Now you can browse shared media in a chat and quickly take actions on them such as downloading or forwarding a photo.
We're long overdue for an update. We'll make these updates more frequent to keep you informed on all the work we've been doing behind-the-scenes.
Improved scrolling performance
Ever notice that the chat history doesn't scroll smoothly? We fixed all that. Now the list will smoothly scroll up and down the chat history, mark messages as read, and scroll to the correct message in the history. While it's much better than the previous implementation, there's still more work to be done to make it perfect. It took a lot of work, but it's now at a good place. If you continue to experience any issues with scrolling, let us know!
Improve CPU usage
Fix opening Telefuel links on desktop
Change active workspace indicator
Fix joinchat links
Improve drag and drag chats to workspace - Now you can drag and drop the edge of a chat to the workspace thumbnail.
Expandable Workspace Sidebar
We have a brand new and improved sidebar for all your workspaces. When you hover over the sidebar, the sidebar will now expand so you can see the workspace names and shortcuts. There's also a way for you to pin the sidebar so that it is permanently expanded.
Zoom in/out on Desktop
Support for bot reply keyboards
