Design Competition 2024

Prize fund: Up to $30,000
Deadline: 23:59 Dubai time @ April 27th, 2024
Who can participate: Everyone

Telegram announces a competition for UI designers. The top prize is $5,000, and the winner may get a chance to join the Telegram Design team.

The Task is to create 3 short demo videos for 3 different features in the same manner as the demonstrations from the Telegram Blog.

Each video should offer a brief overview of a feature that currently does not exist in official Telegram apps.

You are welcome to use any ideas (e.g., in-app payments or a feed for channels). Be creative, but don't get carried away by things like a major app redesign.

It is mandatory to cover both iOS and Android – at least 1 video out of 3 must be made for a different platform. Entries featuring all videos for both platforms are likely to get higher chances in the final scoring, provided that they fulfill the evaluation criteria.

Evaluation Criteria:
While evaluating submissions, the judges may apply the following criteria to determine the winners:

Clarity – the general audience must have a clear understanding of how the feature you are displaying works.

Consistency – the video should be looped, with smooth transitions between screens and all elements should be consistent and balanced.

Completeness – you must present a finalized flow for your feature. Your video should show an entry point from existing Telegram interfaces, a brief overview of the feature's main components and a transition back to the entry point.

Submissions:
We will publish instructions how to submit your work closer to the deadline.
