YOGYAKARTA - Forward Messages in the Telegram application are messages that come from one Telegram user that are re-sent to other users. This is usually done to make it easier for users to share information without having to copy or rewrite the information submitted.
In instant messaging apps like Telegram and WhatsApp, you'll usually see a "Forward" icon appear on messages you receive to share the message. If you select the icon then the messages you share with people in your contacts are information from other people.
It also indicates that the message was not written by the sender of the message. Therefore, if you share the "Forward" message in a Telegram group chat, it's not uncommon for your friends to make remarks that are sometimes unreadable.
Therefore, for some people, the "Forward" icon in the Telegram app is quite annoying. It also makes users choose to retype the information they want to convey so they are not considered just sharing other people's messages.
But, you actually don't need to bother to rewrite the message when using the Telegram application. The reason is, the application has a feature that allows users to remove the "Forward" icon in messages that they share.
In the following, the VOI team has summarized how to remove the "Forward" icon on messages shared using the Telegram app. You can also try it when you share messages from other people to group chats in your contacts.
How to Remove the Forward Icon on Telegram
To get rid of the "Forward" icon in Telegram messages that you share, users can first update the Telegram app on your device to the latest version via Google Play Store or App Store.
After updating the Telegram application, you can open the Telegram application and search for a message in the Telegram chat that you want to share with other Telegram users.
Click the message and hold it until a menu appears that you can choose from, one of which is the "Forward" link. Click the link and select the contact you want to share the message with.
