Telegram UI Competition for iOS

Prize fund: Up to $25,000
Deadline: 23:59 on September 3rd (Dubai time)
Who can participate: Everyone
Results: September 13th, 2023

Telegram is hosting a small competition for iOS developers while our major contests are taking a summer break.

The Task:
Implement two new animation flows into Telegram for iOS based on the provided mockups. No third-party UI frameworks are allowed.

Evaluation Criteria:
The smoothness of animations, adherence to the provided mockups and design elements, the overall stability of the app – and the absence of significant flaws (including crashes, performance issues, visual glitches, noticeable element blinking, layout errors and more). Proper support for iOS 17 will be considered a bonus.

Devices:
During the evaluation stage, submissions will be tested on a broad range of iOS devices: iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 14 Pro, iPad Pro, etc.

Winners may be offered a chance to explore further cooperation opportunities with Telegram.

Submissions:
Contestants will be able to submit their entries to @ContestBot later. We will further clarify the submission instructions closer to the deadline.
