Hello.

I am a Telegram Android user, i'm very happy for a news regarding the Accessibility of the app Telegram for IOS, but after a few months I saw that accessibility was and remained very disappointing on Telegram for this platform. In fact, Nothing was done for reading the unread message counter, for the continuous scrolling of messages in groups and for many other things. Ecept Telegram Web, any other app that can access the Telegram service?
I now use a lot more Telegram than a Whatsapp :-)

Many Thanks

Ok, contact the telegram support with the link I gave as a lot is inaccessible. For example the files area does not read, the links area is inaccessible and that's about it for now. I did contact them with no change but there of us do this the squeaky wheel often times gets the Greece.

deleting conversations is also inaccessible, once you hit edit and try to select a conversation to delete the delete button remains dimmed. there is also an unlabeled button on the main screen. really telegram have just tried to make it accessible on the surface without really properly testing everything. I did try to reach out to them on twitter but no response.

I don't think telegram is being discontinued, I think the version that has been discontinued is telegram x, and I think that might have been designed for iPhone x etc, but I never used it as the ordinary telegram worked fine for me and there didn't seem to be any differences. the article seems to have disappeared though that was linked to, but I did a quick google and couldn't find anything about the entire telegram service disappearing from ios.
