Ban on Forwarding from Private Chats and Group Tags Tested in Telegram

Telegram News 2026-02-25 Create

Telegram is testing several new features in its Android beta, including tighter control over forwarding from private conversations. In the latest beta version, users can restrict the forwarding and saving of messages in private chats either for specific contacts or for all contacts at once. 

This protection will be available only to Telegram Premium subscribers. To enable it for a particular person, you open the contact’s profile, go to that user’s settings menu, and select “Prohibit copying.” To block copying for everyone, you toggle the corresponding option in the privacy settings. For now, the feature is still inactive in the beta and is expected to become fully functional with the next official Telegram update. The tests also include new tag options for members in group chats.
