Modern social networking apps

Every now and then, a new social network emerges, allowing users to communicate with their followers in a new way. With the new policy implemented by Twitter, which did not satisfy many users, Instagram decided to launch a new app with a similar concept to Twitter. Now, users can solely focus on writing textual content according to their preference, unlike Instagram, which only allows photos and videos.

What is "Threads" in content writing?

"Threads" is a well-known writing style on Twitter that helps organize and divide content into several parts. Each tweet contains an idea or a section of the content. This makes it easier for readers to comprehend the topic without reading the entire content as one piece. This writing style gained significant usage when it was introduced on Twitter and is now available for Instagram users through the Threads app.

Integration with Instagram and account setup

If you are an Instagram user, you can easily subscribe to the Threads app. All you have to do is log in using your Instagram account. You can easily import your name, bio, and link from Instagram to Threads. Afterward, choose whether to set your account as public or private, and finally, follow some suggested accounts to see their posts.

Discovering the beautiful and simple interface

The interface of the Threads app closely resembles the interface of the Instagram app, so Instagram users will have no difficulty understanding it. The Threads app has a simple and user-friendly interface. Posts can be read and interacted with in a smooth and direct manner. It includes several main sections such as search, content creation, notifications, and profile options.

Following people and interacting with posts

Like any other social network, it is important to follow other individuals to stay updated on the latest content from your favorite content creators. You may come across posts from accounts you don't follow, which helps you discover interactive and active accounts on Threads. Users can interact with posts by liking, commenting, and sharing.

Prioritizing privacy on Threads

The Threads app places great importance on privacy when it comes to accessing content. You can make your account private to prevent others from viewing your posts without your approval. Additionally, you can choose who can reply to your posts or mention you in comments. This creates a comfortable environment for users to communicate only with the people they desire, while avoiding negative and bothersome comments from fake accounts.

Drawbacks of the Threads app:

There are some features and functionalities that are currently missing in the Threads app. These features are widely used in other social networks. Here are the key missing features:

  • Lack of private messaging between users.
  • Does not support sharing stories and daily updates.
  • Inability to bookmark or save posts for later reference.
  • Cannot save photos and videos to the device.

However, it should be noted that the Threads app is still in its early stages, and there are likely many features that will be added in the future. So, we might need to wait for some time before they are implemented.
