Telegram(电报中文) has long had functionality for individual reading receipts. This is useful in ensuring that an important message has been read by the recipient. Group reading receipt is simply a function extended from this. Admins can choose to turn it on/off at any time, while other members are not allowed to change it. Admin(s) can also choose whether all admins or only those who were made admins after this function was turned on can see the reading receipt.

The function of reading receipts

Some of you probably already know that Telegram has long had functionality for individual reading receipts. This means you can see when your message was read by the recipient.

This is great because it allows you to send messages and check whether they are read in time, without bothering your friends with notifications or sending them again and again.

But what if a group chat has hundreds of members? How would you know whether a message was received by each member?

The same thing applies to supergroups with thousands of participants: how could we manage to get notifications from all members?

Displayed as a blue check mark next to the message

If a message has been read by the recipient, you will see a blue check mark right next to the message. When both you and the recipient have read the message, there will be two check marks.

A green user icon means that all other members of this chat can see that this person has read your messages.

If someone in your chat hasn’t opened any messages from you in 10 days or more, their profile photo will turn into an unread envelope icon with bold text stating “[user name] hasn’t opened any chats in over 10 days!”

Helps ensure that recipients have read important messages

The new function of Telegram – group reading receipt is very useful in ensuring that an important message has been read by the recipient.

Reading receipts is a way for you to confirm that your messages have been seen. Your recipients will see an icon next to the sent message showing them how many people have seen it and who exactly saw it. This is useful in ensuring that an important message has been read by the recipient, or if someone hasn’t read your message yet then they can be reminded about it with a push notification from Telegram!

Group reading receipt is simply a function extended from this

Group reading receipts are simply a function extended from individual reading receipts. The name is misleading, but it’s just another way to keep track of who has read your messages and when. The difference between individual and group receipts is that you can only use the latter if you’re an admin of the channel where it’s turned on, and if this feature was available for your channel after it was introduced (in which case you’ll need to manually turn on group reading receipt).

Group Receipts give admins the ability to see when someone has read their message in a group chat. This lets you know whether or not they saw what they needed to see, rather than having them ask or wait until later in case someone else wanted to mention something else relevant right away before disappearing into silence again. It also helps give users confidence in knowing whether or not someone saw their message before replying/asking questions because they’ve been informed as such by Telegram itself instead of having no proof whatsoever other than hoping everyone else did too!

Administrator privileges

Admins can choose to turn it on/off at any time, while other members are not allowed to change it.

Admin(s) can also choose – this is useful in ensuring that an important message has been read by the recipient.

You can open the reading receipt according to the culture of your team

You may turn on the group reading receipt depending on your group’s culture, so you can see who hasn’t been paying attention in your group chat!

Group reading receipt is a function extended from individual reading receipt. If you turn on this function, Telegram(Telegram客户端) will notify all members of the group when any one member reads a message sent by a specific member or by anyone in the group.

This feature helps to ensure that an important message has been read by all recipients — no more missed messages!
