Using the real-time message translation is quite easy as the entire chats can be translated by simply tapping the Translate bar at the top.

The 'Profile Photo Maker' will allow users to quickly turn any sticker or animated emoji into a profile picture for their accounts, groups or channels.

Everyone can use animated and custom emojis for these pictures, even if they don't have Telegram Premium, said the company.
