Telegram Android beta got new options for quick share and a way to navigate back to recent channels

The latest Telegram beta version 8.5.0 comes with a bunch of minor improvements. For example, now, after opening a link to navigate to a channel, you can long-press on the back button. It will show a context menu with a list of your recent chats and channels you can navigate back to.

Apart from this, you can find several new options on the quick share menu. Now you can hide a sender name or send it a silent (without notifying people). These options were already available in the forward menu before. If you wonder what Quick Share is - it is an option to share Telegram content within the Telegram itself without opening a native Android share menu. You can open it by tapping on this arrow button next to every message on the right.

Apart from this, now Telegram got support for WebM files that will be shown as stickers.
