Many media wrote that Telegram has announced geocache, but it is not!
Why this is not true:
— In the news refer to the information from the Telegram API, but this page has not been updated since 2013, of any announcements of the question.
— Most of the information is based on actual testing of the functionality and not the application development team.
What is known at the moment:
— Operating radius from 1 meter to ~12 km (calculated by testing). And certainly not from 5 meters to 6 kilometers, as stated in the media (and the old API).
— In the list of "nearby group" shows a 5 group chats (sort unknown).
— Users can report a group, if the location is incorrect.
— Geo-tag remains even if you remove the public excellent have a chat. This is either a bug, or everything goes to the fact that we will see a public group without username.
— At this point to remove geo-tag from chat can not (most likely, it will not change).
