Official Video Walkthrough: Telegram Short #249
Watch the verified feature demonstration below to observe live interface interactions, gesture controls, and responsive UI behaviors in action.
alternate_email 1. Priority Notification Queues & Smart Anchor Navigation
Telegram separates general unread chat counts from targeted interactions. When someone mentions your @username or replies to your post, a floating "@" button docks to the bottom-right corner.
Tapping the "@" badge instantly scrolls the viewport directly to the earliest unread mention, bypassing thousands of intervening group messages.
When members react with emoji to your shared media or commentary, a glowing heart badge allows you to inspect and cycle through feedback.
Even if a massive group is muted, direct @mentions can deliver discreet notification badges without disruptive audio interruptions.

Once all mentions are brought into the active viewport, the badge automatically dismisses, returning you to clean scroll state.
