Telegram May Allow Users to Protect Accounts with Email

Reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi has found another way to protect an account - using email - in the depths of Telegram's Android client.

The implication is that a user will be able to add an email in the messenger's privacy settings, and then probably receive temporary login codes for Telegram (instead of SMS) on it.

A "Sign in with Google" button can also be found in the screenshots.
