Good news for bot builders! With today's release of our iOS, Android and Desktop apps, people will have a new way of contacting your bot: right from the text input field. Works in any cloud chat, the bot doesn't need to be a member.
This means you can now provide users with content to send to their friends (@gif, @vid, @pic, @wiki, @imdb) or transform their input (@bold) – and who knows what else you'll come up with.

Bot API v.2.1. is here. We've added support for edited messages and new mentions from Telegram 3.9., and introduced a handful of new methods for group administrator bots.
Your bot can now get a list of administrators in a group, know how many members there are in a group and check a user's current status (administrator, creator, left the group, kicked from the group).
If a group starts getting on your bot's nerves, the bot can now leave it using the new leaveChat method.
