Telegram brings new features to iOS app

Over the weekend, Telegram introduced some new useful features to its iOS app, including enhanced dark themes, Silent Messages, and Slow Mode. With improved Night Mode, you get new accent colours to choose from, allowing you to customize the theme to your liking. Meanwhile, Silent Messages lets you send a message to someone without a sound. It doesn't matter what their notification settings on their device are. They will still get a notification, but it won't come the sound. This would prove to be useful if you're messaging them in the middle of the night or when they're at an important meeting or date.

Slow Mode for group chats will let an administrator limit people to sending one message per the interval they choose. For example, they can set it so that people could only send one message every 30 seconds. The app also allows for custom titles for group admins. You can also toggle looped playback for animated stickers in the Settings. And if you want, you can send a single :heart: :thumbsup: :meh: :wow: or :party:  to add an animated emoji to the chat.

Turn your photos into custom gradients with Adobe Capture for iOS

A new feature available to Adobe Capture for iOS will help turn the photos you take into inspiration for your art. The beta version of the app now has a gradient extraction tool that turns your photos into custom gradients. You can save these in a variety of formats, including as an image, SVG with the gradient embedded, or CSS code. And when the feature officially launches, you can save the gradient in your Library, too.

To access the feature, head to the Colours module. Look for the colour mode icon in the toolbar that can switch into gradient capture mode. You can have the app find a gradient for you or swipe the screen to do it on your own. Adobe Capture also gets integration with Behance, allowing you to showcase "inspiring projects created with Capture and enabling creatives to like, comment, and follow new artists directly within the app."
