Security Measures

Telegram Calls are secured similar to the Telegram’s Secret Chat, which is backed with end-to-end encryption. Further, to make the calls secured, the caller and the recipient have to just remember four emoji over the phone. This eliminates the burden of remembering lengthy passwords or complicated pictures.

Speed

Telegram has ensured that whenever a user makes a call it will go over a peer-to-peer connection which is done by using best codecs to save traffic along with providing clear quality. In case, if a peer-to-peer connection is not established then Telegram will try to establish the call through closest server. This will help in making calls faster. To make the difference, Telegram uses distributed infrastructure across the globe which was previously used for texts and now it will be also used for calls. Telegram is also working to expand its roots across the globe to make the calls at lightning speed even in the remote areas.

AI-Powered

When a user makes a call through Telegram, a neural network learns from the user and device’s feedback. But, it will only have the information about speed, ping times, packet loss percentage,etc and no information about the call will be captured. The machine optimizes a dozen of parameters which is based on the inputs received from the neural network and improves the future calls on the particular device and network. These parameters can be also adjusted during a conversation if there is a change in the connection. Telegram’s functionality will adapt and provide excellent sound quality on stable WiFi – or use less data when you are in a data with bad reception. The company has already made the calls quality on the par but, with the use of the service over time, the AI will further improve the quality.
