On big screen devices, the Telegram app will also take advantage of the full screen for offering a better view of everything that’s occurring. For example, you can have a split-screen view with both calling screen and a list of everyone in the call.
For now, group video calls are limited to the first 30 people. This number will be increased soon.
Telegram announced group video calling back in April 2020 and initially promised to bring it by the end of 2020. The company failed to meet its promise and took additional 6 months to finally release the feature.
