The official Telegram on Telegram. Much recursion. Very Telegram. Wow.
A new update for our iOS app is just out. Version 3.2.2 offers a new way of sharing messages from channels for everyone and Spotlight search support for iOS 9 users.
We've also added more 3D Touch actions. iPhone 6s users can now open recent chats from their home screens and Peek into chats from the chats list without opening them. Yay.

The App Store guardians just let through another update for our iOS app.
Telegram is now fully optimized for iPhones 6s and 6s+, with all the pesky bugs fixed. We've added a few touches of 3D Touch: try the Telegram icon on your main screen and links in messages. We've also enabled Split View and Slide Over for devices that support these features.
With full WatchOS2 support, Watch users can now send voice messages, use quick replies and enjoy greatly increased overall speed. Channels and bots may now also be accessed on the Watch, and we've included a special button for bot commands.
The Telegram Desktop client for Windows, OS X and Linux got updated to version 0.9 today — and supports channels now.

We've locked our native OS X developer in his room and will give him no food until his app is ready as well. So not long now.
Most of you got here by following the link in the blog, so you already know the basics about channels.
What we didn't mention there is that this is just the beginning, more channel-related stuff is coming in the next updates. And the underlying technology allows for a lot of nifty features. For example, it may become possible to edit your posts in channels in future.
This thing is about to become the official Telegram channel on Telegram.
