# New Follower Alert

The **Follower Notification** feature keeps your Telegram community in the loop every time your project’s X account gains a new follower. By automatically announcing new followers in the group, the bot helps drive visibility and celebrate community growth in real-time.

Instead of checking manually or missing key engagements, the group is instantly notified, boosting momentum and engagement within the community.
