Description

Right now I always have to look in the Apple App store which is the Telegram version I'm running, which is stupid.
For troubleshooting and issue reporting here it's an important information and users might loose track due to auto update etc.

Then I found out that there is the debug menu... but that's also not where a normal user should quickly check what version he is running.
Same for the version which is displayed under accounts in the privacy menu. Nobody expects it there. I had to search a lot to find out about those hidden options in the first place.

Why not only display it at the very bottom of the settings page for example?

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Settings page and the existing version displays in the debug menu and Accounts section of Privacy settings. Determine the appropriate Settings entry point and verify that the app version is visible at the bottom of Settings for a normal user; the issue names no file or test to run.
