YOGYAKARTA - The Telegram instant messaging application has a variety of interesting features that distinguish it from similar instant messaging applications, such as WhatsApp, Messenger and so on.
The reason is, in the Telegram application, group members who have just joined a certain chat room can see chat history or chats made by other users before the new member joins.
With this feature in Telegram, group admins or other members don't need to explain anymore chats that have been done, because new members can see the chat history that has been given.
The admin or owner of a Telegram chat group only needs to activate the Chat History feature to show the conversations that have been carried out by members of the group in the way that will be explained in this article.
If you are interested in using the Chat History feature in Telegram, users can follow the steps that the VOI team has compiled below.
How to Enable Telegram Group Chat HistoryTo enable the Chat History feature in one of the chat groups to newly joined members, users can first update the Telegram app on your device.
Smartphone users can update the application on the Google Play Store or the Apps Store, then search for the Telegram application and click the "Update" menu available.
Next, you can select one of the Telegram groups that you want to show your Chat history to new members. For the record, you must be the admin or owner of the group to enable the Chat History feature.
After opening one of the Telegram group chat pages on your device, click on the name of the group, then select the "Edit" icon in the available menu.
By selecting the "Edit" menu, the user will enter the Telegram group settings. As explained earlier, only the owner and the person appointed to be the group admin can access the menu.
After entering into settings, users can search for the "Chat History" feature and display it to new members. Before you activate it, the chat history status is hidden, and cannot be seen by the newly joined group members.
