IFTTT automation has allowed us to automate all those services that are mainly linked to social networks, although the diversity is such that it is difficult to determine well all the apps and services that we can use. An automation that is now integrated into our favorite messaging app: Telegram.
The guys from Telegram, as it can happen to us on numerous occasions, it happens that they can have dozens of active chats on Telegram. But among all these there may be some of vital importance such as that of our mother or wife. That is why in version 3.15 can fix important conversations at the top of the list of chats that we have.
Pinned chats
This new capacity is of vital importance for a Telegram that is the favorite to put in contact the various work groups of a company or company. So now, with fixed chats, you can be aware of all those chats without being hidden among all those that you may have.
To set a chat, press and hold on it and select "Anchor". Up to 5 chats can be pinned on top as well as secret chats.
IFTTT
IFTTT is the other great novelty of Telegram to be able to link the account of Telegram with more than 360 services with the conditioner "If This Then That". This can work with any of the social networks such as Twitter and Instagram, even productivity tools such as Gmail or many others for entertainment, cloud services or the Internet of Things.
With this inclusion, Telegram is positioned as the first messaging app that integrates completely IFTTT. Now you can control other services through Telegram or receive notifications and content such as photos and videos. The @IFTTT bot can be invited into any of your groups so that members can interact collaboratively with your services or devices.
A Pair of IFTTT examples:
- Get a message from Telegram when important emails arrive
- When get mentioned on twitter, send the tweet to Telegram
- Every time you throw an inning with a new instagram photo, share it with Telegram
- Share themes you add to a Spotify playlist with a group or Telegram channel
- Send a message to @IFTTT on Telegram to change the color of the lights
- Automatically make a new tweet from your Telegram channel

Secret chats are the safest way to share data on this planet, as the guys from Telegram say, so it is understandable that they do not allow data to be taken from them.

With Telegram 3.15 for Android, you can pass messages and multimedia content from cloud chats and channels to secret chats.
