This move comes after years of users requesting the addition, with over half of all feature requests being related to Stories. Moreover, with the introduction of Stories on Telegram, Premium users can exercise greater control over their content’s visibility.

The feature allows users to choose who can view their stories, including options to make them viewable by everyone, selected contacts, or a list of close friends.
Stories will be neatly organized in an expandable section at the top of the chat list. Furthermore, users have the ability to hide Stories from specific contacts by moving them to the “Hidden” list within the Contacts section.
Telegram’s Stories offer several engaging elements, such as the inclusion of captions and links, as well as the option to tag other users in their stories.
Additionally, users can post photos and videos captured from both the front and rear cameras simultaneously, adopting a BeReal-style approach for an enhanced storytelling experience.
For added flexibility, users can set an expiration time for their stories, ranging from six to 48 hours, or opt to permanently display them on their profile page similar to Instagram’s Story highlights.

While the current rollout is exclusively for Premium users, Telegram has plans to eventually introduce the Stories feature to all users. However, the exact timeline for this broader release remains undisclosed.
