Yesterday we reported that Telegram has updated its Official Preview App for Windows Phone and Windows 10 Mobile with Voice Calls option which is currently disabled. Today the Telegram team has updated its Desktop app to new version 1.1.0 which brings the support for Voice Calls.

The Implementation of the Voice Calls is similar to that of Mobile and is being referred by Telegram as the most secure, crystal clear and improved by artificial intelligence. Along with releasing the Voice Calling the Developers have also made several other changes. The team has added new emoji, stickers and saved GIF’s panel to the Desktop app.

The new emoji, stickers and saved GIF’s panel has a separate space on the right when Telegram is running in landscape mode. Users now also have the option to manage the blocked list in super groups. Chat admins have now been given the option to delete messages made by other members.

With the introduction of voice calls on the desktop means the Telegram app now supports the feature on all platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS.  However the Windows Phone and Windows 10 users are still awaiting to actually use the feature which is available for some users in the Preview app, it would not be too long before the feature is activated for all users on Mobile too.

We will however let you know once the Voice Call feature is activated on Windows Phone and Windows 10 Mobile. Till then keep watching this space for more. Users can download the latest Telegram desktop update by clicking the below link.
