Telegram is set to soon allow users to hide spoilers in chats. This will make it easier for users to keep their conversations spoiler-free, and prevent them from being embarrassed or ashamed when they accidentally reveal something they didn’t want to share. This change is a big step forward for the messaging app, as it will help keep the conversation more spoiler-free and respectful. It’s also great news for those who love watching TV shows and movies without having any spoilers revealed to them ahead of time.
The new spoiler feature was posted in the chat app’s subreddit by Reddit user Tanto_Faz_123 (Via Android Police). It shows how the spoiler feature works in an advanced beta version of Telegram on Android. The video shows the spoiler option tucked in the same area where you’d underline, strikethrough, or add any other formatting to your texts.
When you choose to make text hidden behind a spoiler warning, you’ll send a scrambled message that looks pixelated until the recipient taps the message to reveal the contents. It doesn’t say that the message is a spoiler, but at least it hides the information in the message if you’re scrolling through a group chat.
With lots of new Marvel movies, a new Matrix movie, and tons of TV shows on the horizon, there couldn’t be a better time for Telegram to roll out a new feature like this. The company hasn’t posted when it plans to launch the new feature or whether it will launch on iOS and desktop. We’ve reached out to the company and will update this article if it responds.
