On top, there's a new calendar view for media files that display pictures and videos in a calendar as on the shared date. You can also filter shared media to show only photos, only videos, or both.

“Every Telegram user has unlimited cloud storage, and each chat has a Shared Media page that shows all the photos, videos, files, and music that have been sent there. We’ve added a new date bar on the side of the page, which you can drag up and down to scroll through shared media faster,” mentions the blog post.
