blindGram 15.0 lets you ask AI about any Telegram message

August 25, 2026 8 min read

blindGram 15.0 is out on Telegram 12.10.0. You can now ask an AI about any message, walk every part of a rich message, and search the blindGram settings.

The final build of blindGram 15.0 was published on August 25, 2026, for Android. Most of what is new is about hearing more of what is on screen and reaching it with fewer swipes. Here is what changes for you, grouped by what it does.

Ask AI about any message

Ask AI appears in the message menu for any message. The message opens as an accessible conversation, you type your question, and follow-up questions build on the answer. Answers are kept for a week, so the same request is not sent or paid for twice. #
Long text messages get Summarize text, and voice messages get Summarize voice.
OpenRouter, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini and custom services are supported. Setup is in the Assistant AI guide, and the @blindGram_Assistant channel covers the features in more depth.
Saved phrases sits beside Send on the AI conversation screen. It starts with three useful questions. Add your own, pick one to put it in the field ready to send, and long-press a phrase to delete it. #

Reading messages and emoji

Every emoji is spoken again, with short names, in all twelve app languages. About a thousand newer emoji that used to be skipped are now read. Uzbek was also added as an app language.
Every useful part of a rich message is its own stop: image sliders, players, maps, tables, code, formulas and links. An image slider pages with an up or down swipe and announces its position. The rich message elements guide lists them all.
A sender's admin, owner or custom group tag is spoken the same way on text, photo, video, voice and file messages, and Announce admin and group tags turns it off.
In a busy channel the new-message count no longer talks over the message you are reading. It is spoken when you reach the Go to bottom button.

Finding and keeping your settings

Search in the blindGram Area covers the current screen and every screen under it. Opening a result puts the reading cursor on that setting.
A Help button in the header opens the full blindGram documentation.
Settings backups survive uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Restore finds a backup by itself or lets you pick one in the system file picker, and both backup and restore announce their result. The Backup and Updates guide has the details.

New options to hide or move things

Hide stories moves the stories row and the post button into one Stories entry in More options. #
Download folder chooses where downloaded files go. #
Ask which kind of call offers Call or Video call before dialling. #
Proxy button in the toolbar puts proxy beside More options. #
Hide the gift button removes the gift button everywhere, and Hide the search button in channels removes the one beside Join and Mute. #
Do not play videos with volume buttons stops the volume keys from starting a downloaded video that is on screen. #

Media, recording and calls

While a voice message or track plays, the next one is fetched so it starts without a gap. The Files tab loads its complete list with no unlabeled loading rows. The player at the top announces the track and elapsed time before its controls.
The voice and round-video recorder's Pause, Resume, Send, Cancel, Delete and audio preview can be found by touch as well as by swiping.
Incoming voice and video calls have accessible Answer and Decline controls in the call screen and in the notification. In a video chat the End call and Message buttons stay available, and Return to call opens the call again.

Privacy, updates and payment

Ghost mode now also blocks status updates, so read receipts, story views, typing, online status and status changes all stay hidden.
Update notices for the app and the Assistant use full version names and appear once per release. An interrupted download continues from where it stopped.
Online license payment now supports TON inside the app, beside the existing route. @blindGramLicenseBot handles payment.

Fixes

Background notifications and message delivery, reconnection after a VPN or network change, downloads stuck at 97 or 99 percent, the confirmation when editing a message, video-call controls that disappeared, and the reported crashes are all fixed.

Get the APK from the download page. blindGram Plus is the same app under a second package, only for running two copies on one phone, and its build is posted in the @blindGram_PLUS2 channel.
