Telegram Mobile Apps May Expose IP Address via Quick Proxy Setup Links

A security researcher discovered that Telegram's mobile apps do not warn users about potential IP exposure when clicking quick proxy setup links. While not a major danger for average users, this is undesirable for those concerned about being surveilled.

The Core Issue

Typically, clicking an external link or unsafe file triggers a warning pop-up. However, clicking a quick proxy setup link is handled differently: the app immediately attempts to connect to the server to check its availability, bypassing the warning entirely.

An attacker can disguise such a link as a username or another hyperlink. The moment it is clicked, the app sends a request to the server controlled by the attacker, thereby revealing the user's IP address.

• The issue affects only Android and iOS clients.
• The @tginfo team independently confirmed that Telegram Desktop, macOS, Telegram X, and Web versions handle these links safely and do not automatically connect to proxy servers.

The Risk is Low

It is important to note that for most users, this problem is not critical. An IP address usually only reveals an approximate location (city level), and many users have dynamic IPs.

Similar flaws, such as EvilLoader, have been fixed by the Telegram team in the past. We believe developers may disable the automatic check for proxies opened from formatted links in upcoming updates.

For those whom IP privacy is critical, we recommend using a system-wide VPN. This is the only reliable way to prevent IP leaks across apps.

Telegram Blocks Links to Amazon's CDN Domain

Updated 22:00 UTC: The problem was resolved.

Users are reporting that Telegram is blocking messages containing the cloudfront․net domain, which is frequently used to host media files for a wide range of websites.

When attempting to send text containing this domain, the app displays an error popup stating: "Sorry, you can only send messages to mutual contacts at the moment".

The popup is a mistake: The alert regarding account restrictions (a spam ban) is inaccurate. Users encountering this error have not actually been restricted.

The @tginfo team speculates that Telegram may have inadvertently blacklisted the popular Amazon web service domain in response to some malicious activity. It appears the app is misinterpreting the server rejection to deliver the message, triggering a generic placeholder message regarding a spam ban.

Telegram for Android and iOS Have Been Updated to Version 12.3

Telegram has postponed a large-scale redesign on Android — there is no bottom navigation menu in the iOS style in this version.

Brief AI Summaries: When viewing long posts in channels, you can instantly view summaries of their content. A summarized version of Instant View articles is automatically displayed at the top of those, as well.

To generate such excerpts, open-source models running on the decentralized Cocoon network are used.

Complete support for Liquid Glass on iOS: The client now fully supports the "Liquid Glass" style. Thus, transparent elements and soft light refraction have been added to all areas of the application.

Other New Features:
• The button for adding media to drafts has been moved on Android.
• Chat translation is now performed using Cocoon.

Download the update:
• Android: Google Play, APK from the official site or verified channel.
• iOS: App Store.

Major Redesign of Android App

In 12.3 Beta version of Telegram for Android, the app’s interface has undergone a substantial redesign.

What’s new:

• The side menu has been completely removed. Key sections such as "Profile", "Contacts", and "Calls" have been moved to the bottom navigation bar, while the remaining options are now located in a three-dot overflow menu positioned directly above the chat list.

• The "Settings" section is now accessible in two ways: via a large "Settings" button on the Profile tab, or through the three-dot menu at the top of the screen.

• Long-pressing the "Profile" tab in the tab bar allows you to quickly switch between your signed-in accounts. This can also be done from the Settings section.

• The global search bar is now available directly above the chat list and remains visible while scrolling.

• The button for creating a new Story has been moved to the top of the screen.

• The icons next to items on the main "Settings" screen have been updated.

• The active chat folder is now displayed in a capsule-style design.

Passkeys, Gift Purchase Offers and More

Telegram for Android has been updated to version 12.2.10, and Telegram for iOS to version 12.2.4. Here is what is new in this release:

Passkeys: You can now create a Passkey on your device. It allows you to instantly log in to Telegram using a PIN or biometric data (fingerprint or Face ID). This makes signing in accessible even when you have no active sessions, no cellular service, or when SMS delivery from Telegram is blocked by carriers.

The @tginfo team has prepared a detailed guide and FAQ regarding the Passkeys feature. We've also developed troubleshooting steps for common problems with Passkeys on Android.

Gift Purchase Offers: When viewing gifts in a user's profile, you can now offer to buy a gift you like from the owner, but for no less than 125 Stars or 1.1 TON. You set the price and duration of the offer yourself, and the amount is reserved for the validity period of the offer.

Extended Audio Selection in Stories: Now, when creating a story, you can use music from your Saved Music playlist, as well as from recently sent audio files in your chats.

Other additions:
• View all attributes of collectible gifts.
• Channel settings now allow restricting which administrators can ban users.
Note: the extended Liquid Glass redesign from the Beta version is not active in this release.

Log in to Telegram via Passkeys Without Codes or Phone Numbers

In the future, Telegram plans to introduce authentication via Passkeys. The first signs of this feature have appeared in the Beta version of Telegram for Android 12.2.8.

The key advantage of Passkeys is the ability to log into your account without entering a phone number or a one-time code. This distinguishes it from logging in via email or Google / Apple ID, which serve merely as alternatives to receiving an SMS code.

A “log in using passkey” button has appeared on the app's login screen. Tapping it launches your password manager, which verifies your identity using Face ID, fingerprint, or your screen lock PIN. From it, the messenger receives your signature, which functions as your login, password, and one-time confirmation code all simultaneously.

Much like email login, this new feature will need to be pre-configured in Telegram’s security settings. The key will be saved on the phone where it was created, but it can be synced with other devices via Google Password Manager, iCloud Passwords, or other applications.

Why is this important?

Reduced reliance on SMS: This makes logging in possible even if you don’t have active sessions and your mobile operator is blocking SMS messages from Telegram.

Security: The Passkey is stored in a secure enclave of your password manager—it cannot be intercepted or entered on a phishing site.

Speed: Login is performed with a single touch via biometrics (face or fingerprint). When you switch phones, the Passkey automatically syncs via your password manager using your Google account or Apple ID.

The feature is currently under development and is not yet fully functional. Stay tuned for news about Telegram Beta versions on our Beta Info channel.

2025-11-27 21:06:23 Telegram’s New Interface Is Inaccessible to Users with Visual Impairments

Following the release of Telegram’s newly redesigned mobile apps, users with visual impairments have found themselves at a significant disadvantage. According to user reports, the elements in the app’s bottom navigation bar are no longer identifiable by screen readers such as VoiceOver. The buttons in the bottom panel cannot be detected by screen-reading software, and many interface controls no longer receive accessibility focus.

This is not the first time Telegram has faced accessibility issues. Between 2020 and 2023, blind users repeatedly reported numerous bugs — including being unable to scroll through the chat list, access message reactions, or use unlabeled buttons in the settings menu.

Deceptive Website Warning on macOS: Apple Falsely Blocks Instant View

Users of Telegram Desktop for macOS are facing a false "Deceptive Website Warning" when trying to open an Instant View for any site.

Most likely, Apple has mistakenly blocked the technical address that the messenger app uses to display Instant View articles.

Don't panic: this is a false warning. If you are impacted by the problem, here is what you can do:

One-time solution
In the warning window itself, click "Show Details", and then click the "visit this unsafe website" link, after which the article will open.

If the warning annoys you too much (unrecommended, not safe)
You can temporarily disable this check in macOS itself:
• Open Safari.
• In the top menu bar, select Safari › Settings › Security.
• Uncheck the "Warn when visiting a fraudulent website" option.

The @tginfo team will announce when the problem is resolved, so you don't forget to turn this setting back on.

Auction for Purchasing Limited Gifts

In the beta version of Telegram for iOS 12.2 (31682), a new system for distributing gifts via auction has been implemented.

How the auction currently works:
• 50 gifts are distributed at different intervals among the top 50 participants with the highest bids. 
• If a bid drops out of the top 50, it is automatically carried over to the next draw. 
• If a bid does not win after the final draw, the stars are fully refunded.

At the moment, the auction applies to newly released gifts. Whether the system will also work for previously upgraded gifts is still unknown.

This feature is under development and currently works only on the test server. Its behavior may change in the future.

The Discuss Button Has Disappeared From Channel Profiles on iOS

After the introduction of direct messages to channels, Telegram users on iOS discovered that they no longer have the option to open the discussion group from a channel's profile if discussion is enabled. The button that previously opened the discussion group now opens the direct messages chat.

The editorial team of @tginfo does not know whether this is a bug or intended behavior by the developers. The issue likely appeared in Telegram for iOS version 11.12, when channels got direct messages.

For channels without direct messages enabled, the button still opens the discussion group.

It is still possible to open the group linked to a channel with discussion enabled. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Open any post of the channel and go to the comments.
2. Press and hold the “Back” button. The app will then show a list including both the channel itself and the group linked to it.
3. Select the group.
