The beta version of the popular privacy-focused messaging app Telegram has been updated to version 1.4.5.

The update brings along a number of usability features for those in a hurry, including the ability to review pictures sent in a channel more rapidly and to listen to voicemails at double speed.

The full changelog reads:

  • View all photos and videos in the preview of Twitter and Instagram links.
  • Listen to voice and video messages in 2X mode when you are in a hurry.
  • Find video messages in the Shared Voice Messages section.
  • Add a comment if you’re sharing posts from channels.
  • Bug fixes and other minor improvements.

The Telegram private messaging app features:

  • FAST: Telegram is the fastest messaging app on the market, connecting people via a unique, distributed network of data centers around the globe.
  • SYNCED: You can access your messages from all your devices at once. Start typing on your phone and finish the message from your tablet or laptop. Never lose your data again.
  • UNLIMITED: You can send media and files, without any limits on their type and size. Your entire chat history will require no disk space on your device, and will be securely stored in the Telegram cloud for as long as you need it.
  •  SECURE: We made it our mission to provide the best security combined with ease of use. Everything on Telegram, including chats, groups, media, etc. is encrypted using a combination of 256-bit symmetric AES encryption, 2048-bit RSA encryption, and Diffie–Hellman secure key exchange.
  • POWERFUL: You can create group chats for up to 5,000 members, share large videos, documents of any type (.DOC, .MP3, .ZIP, etc.), and even set up bots for specific tasks. It’s the perfect tool for hosting online communities and coordinating teamwork.
  • RELIABLE: Built to deliver your messages in the minimum bytes possible, Telegram is the most reliable messaging system ever made. It works even on the weakest mobile connections.
  • FUN: Telegram has powerful photo and video editing tools and an open sticker/GIF platform to cater to all your expressive needs.
  • SIMPLE: While providing an unprecedented array of features, we are taking great care to keep the interface clean. With its minimalist design, Telegram is lean and easy to use.
  • 100% FREE & NO ADS: Telegram is free and will always be free. We are not going to sell ads or introduce subscription fees.
  • PRIVATE: We take your privacy seriously and will never give third parties access to your data.
