When it comes to cool and useful features, it’s Telegram that always has an upper hand over Facebook-owned WhatsApp. Well, with update 5.2, Telegram has introduced some cool new features that make it much more enticing than WhatsApp.

More power to group admins

With the 5.2 update, Telegram group admins can now prevent group members from sending specific kind of content to the group – be it stickers and GIFs, or links. If you are a group admin, you can head over to the group’s permissions section and select what kind of content do you want to allow on the group. You can also prevent group members from sending any messages to the group.

Have more members in a group
