Telegram now allows you to transfer messages when changing numbers
The messaging application Telegram receives a new update aimed at further improving security and privacy you offer in your conversations. And it seems that in these areas it is not possible to relax for a second. That is why they launch a new protection for their users' communications. But not only that, they have also taken the opportunity to introduce other useful new features that we explain in detail below.
Thus, Telegram is updated for both Android and iOS including in this new version support for Perfect Forward Secrecy It is a security barrier intended to strengthen the privacy of Secret Chats of this application. And, until now, they were protected by encryption end-to-end or user to user with a code that only they knew. However, the lack of renewal of that code poses a long-term danger since in the event of being discovered, all the information would be exposed ( although in Telegram no case yet). What Perfet Forward Secrecy offers is update said code from time to time to avoid having to create new conversations and further secure these chats. But there is more news in this update.
Another of the key points of the new version is the possibility of transferring the information of the user account of Telegram to a number different phone. Simply access the settings and choose the option Change number With this, all Secret Chats , contacts, messages and even contents shared are now associated with the new number. And this is one of the advantages of Telegram working on the cloud Of this In this way, everything is available in the new number so that the user does not have to worry about anything. In fact, the common contacts (those in the phonebook and who have the user's old number) will now have the new number automatically in their phonebooksAll a convenience to avoid losing information or giving explanations of more.
The third and last novelty of this update is also very interesting. This is the possibility of using a single domain to share the user account through a linkAnd the fact is that the user name of this application now allows you to create a link that, when clicked by another person, starts Telegram and adds said contact automatically. The good thing is that this means ignoring data such as the phone number, being able to share a simple link through any tool or even in business cards Possibilities increase and privacy remains.
In short, an update that continues to improve the key points of this messaging application, which is still considered one of the safest and best-known thanks to its Secret Chats Issues that are now enhanced with this new version.
