What's New
• Added support for Tor in Settings → Privacy → Use Tor. This routes Telegram connection traffic through an embedded Tor daemon to prevent network operators from linking your account to your real IP. Media downloads remain direct for better performance.
• Introduced a Reduce network tracking option in Settings → Privacy. This refreshes the session key every hour instead of once a day to make passive correlation of your device harder.
• Added a Pre-release badge to the update dialog for beta versions.
Improved
• The app now automatically rotates the session key whenever the network state changes (such as switching Wi-Fi, toggling a VPN, or resuming from a long idle period) to prevent stable device fingerprinting.
• Improved background push delivery when using Tor by ensuring the daemon is properly woken up to fetch updates.
Fixed
• Fixed an issue where CDN redirects could cause infinite loops during file downloads.
• Fixed a bug where stale proxy settings from legacy Orbot configurations could interfere with the connection.
