“For years, our users have been asking us to implement Stories in Telegram. More than half of all feature requests that we receive are related to Stories. Initially, we were against this since Stories are already everywhere. However, Telegram wouldn't be Telegram if we didn't listen to our users and didn't innovate on existing formats. So we will be launching Stories soon," wrote Founder and CEO of Telegram Pavel Durov on his channel a couple of weeks ago.
All Telegram users will be able to see other people's Stories, but only Premium subscribers will be able to post them.
Stories will be placed in an expandable section at the top of your chat list. You'll be able to choose when a story expires – in 6, 12, 24, or 48 hours – or permanently display stories on your profile page, with individual privacy settings for each.
You will be able to define who can see each of your stories with granular precision: Everyone, only your contacts, a few selected contacts, or a list of Close Friends.
In addition to making use of dozens of powerful photo and video-editing tools, you will be able to provide captions for your stories to add more context or links and tag other people.
