Self-destruct timers While it’s great to set a nice profile and win praise from your friends and loved ones, there are times when you might want to hide your profile from certain people. Fortunately, Telegram offers you the needed control over the visibility of your profile. Create Timestamp for Videos For maximum privacy, you can create secret chats that use end-to-end encryption.

To get going, open the Telegram app on your device. Then, head over to a chat and tap on the name of the chat at the top. To do this, long-press on a picture you have sent. Choose the ‘Edit’ button on the top, just like you’d edit a text message once you have sent it. Now, you will get an in-built photo editor where you can add filters, draw or crop images. Alternatively, you can even replace the picture and send another one in its place.
