🏆 Telegram X Android Competition, Round 2: Results

In this round, there were 11 contestants who contributed to 3 separate features for Telegram X:

Channel Comments + Message Threads – 4 submissions
The ‘Send As’ feature – 5 submissions
Improved Search – 4 submissions

While we strongly advised focusing on a single feature to achieve the highest level of quality, several competitors did try 2 or even all 3. We were pleasantly suprised by the skills of Dreamy Crab, who succeeded in implementing 2 well-polished features.

As stated in the announcement, there is only a single nomination per feature – each of the contestants listed below will shortly receive a 70% payout. For the next 2 weeks they can continue improving their apps and fixing any bugs with the help of the Telegram X community once they arrive on the beta. After that, they will receive the remaining 30% of their prize.

While testing the submissions and evaluating the entries' code, we focused on the following criteria: code consistency, overall app stability and how precisely the the provided design was followed.

Here are the winners:

⭐️ Dreamy Crab – $7,700 (70% of $7,000 + $4,000)
• The ‘Send As’ feature
• Improved Search
(The remaining $3,300 will be paid after the community testing phase.) This entry will be available soon on @tgx_log.

⭐️ Subtle Piranha – $6,300 (70% of $9,000)
• Channel Comments + Message Threads
(The remaining $2,700 will be paid after the community testing phase.) This entry can be tested from @tgx_log – and your bug reports are welcome in @tgandroidtests.

The judges unanimously noted 2 other entries – we would like to award ✨Modest Dolphin a bonus prize of $1,000 for a solid attempt at implementing the ‘Send As’ feature. ✨Busy Raсcoon also earns $1,000 for their implementation of Channel Comments – they added a beautiful animation for previewing comments.

Congratulations to the winners and stay tuned for more Telegram X Competitions.
