We all use emojis to express ourselves, whether it's a simple smiley face or a string of hearts. And now, with Telegram's latest update, you can use them to show your status to your friends. With the new Emoji Status feature, you can set an emoji as your status for different time intervals. 

Just long-press on the emoji in the status bar and select "Set as status". You can also add a text caption to your status if you want. Your friends will be able to see your status in the Contacts tab, and if they have the Telegram app open, they'll even get a notification when you change your status.

But that's not all. Telegram has also added the ability for premium users to react to messages with three reactions for one post. This means that you can now put three different reactions on one post instead of just one. This is sure to come in handy when you want to show your support for someone or if you simply want to react to a message with more than one emoji.

To use it, just long-press on a message and tap on the reaction you want to use. You can also add a reaction to a message you've already sent by tapping on the message and then tapping on the reaction icon.

The new Emoji Status and reactions features are just the latest additions to Telegram's ever-growing list of features. With its focus on privacy and security, Telegram has quickly become one of the most popular messaging apps in the world.

Both of these new features are sure to make your Telegram experience even better. So what are you waiting for? Update your app and start using them today!
