Today we’re adding a new way of sharing your theme so you can use it on another device: theme QR codes. The new Theme Sharing menu option allows you to read or scan a code that contains all the customization properties of the chosen theme, including background and accent colors, chat bubbles color, font, and sticker settings. You can also choose to share your theme as a t.me link (that will open the themes list in Telegram), or as a short link that can be shared anywhere, Theme QR codes are tied to their creator’s account. You won’t be able to apply this theme to a different account on the same device; however, if you have multiple accounts you can apply your themes to any of them by logging in
A new way to share your theme
Today we’re adding a new way of sharing your theme so you can use it on another device: theme QR codes.
This is convenient if you’ve created a great theme or if someone else has shared their work with you, but there are some important things to know about how they work.
These QR codes are tied to the creator’s account. This means that if I were to share my “I am The Flash” theme with you and then later change the color scheme, any themes with my QR code will no longer match the version of Telegram(电报客户端) that I’m using on that computer. As such, it’s best to make sure your friends have downloaded all their apps for this feature to be helpful at all!
You cannot apply this theme from another user’s account on the same device because accounts on one device share their unique identifiers (UIDs). Since each UID is linked directly back up through our main servers and into Telegram Cloud itself we see no reason why users would want two different identities occupying space at once. So when applying someone else’s theme to yourself, remember that they need permission and access rights within your account unless otherwise agreed upon beforehand (see below).
New theme-sharing menu options
The new Theme Sharing menu option allows you to read or scan a code that contains all the customization properties of the chosen theme, including background and accent colors, chat bubbles color, font, and sticker settings.
The theme QR codes are tied to the creator’s account. This means that if you apply your themes to any of your accounts, it won’t be possible for someone else to use them without first adding your username as a friend. However, you can still share links to your theme using t.me links (that will open the themes list in Telegram).
Share links
You can also choose to share your theme as a t.me link (that will open the themes list in Telegram), or as a short link that can be shared anywhere.
The t.me link is the same as the short one, except it has fewer characters (in this case, only 7).
These QR codes are tied to their creator’s account
You can’t apply a theme to a different account on the same device. However, if you have multiple accounts you can apply your themes to any of them by logging in.
