# blindGram 13.1 adds time-only and percentage-only announcements

blindGram 13.1 came out March 7, 2025, built on Telegram 11.7.0. Two new options let a screen reader read only a message's time, or only a transfer percentage.

A message's spoken description carries its date as well as its time, and while a download runs the whole message is read again with each progress update. This release lets you cut both down to the part you actually want to hear.

### Shorter announcements

- A new option reads only a message's time. Today it is **Announce time without the date**, under Messages, Announced with each message: for a message from today you hear the time alone.
- A new option reads only the download or upload percentage while a transfer runs, instead of the whole message again with each change. Today it is **Announce only the transfer percentage**, under Media.

### Telegram 11.7.0 and labels

- The features that arrived with Telegram 11.7.0 were made accessible.
- Buttons that users had reported as unnamed got spoken labels, and other reported accessibility bugs were fixed.

blindGram 13.1 Final closed a three-day test cycle: [Beta 1](/blog/2025-03-05/blindgram-13-1-beta-1-telegram-11-7/) on March 5 and [Beta 2](/blog/2025-03-06/blindgram-13-1-beta-2/) on March 6.
