Meta’s Threads is now offering the option to save posts on a wider scale. Here’s a guide on how to use this feature.
Do you like saving posts on Instagram or bookmarking on Twitter? Well, Meta’s Threads lacked this functionality upon release. Now the X competitor has started to spread the feature more widely to its users.
This follows Threads’ own previous testing, which began this month and offered a “save messages” option for some users. This allowed them to return to certain messages later.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced the update: “Starting today, we’re rolling out Save on Threads more widely so you can bookmark your favorite posts for later,” he said.
Saving messages to threads:
1. Open the Threads app and find the message you want to save.
2. Tap the three-dot menu in the message, then tap “Save”.
3. To access the message, you need to go to Settings and find the saved message.
This feature was heavily requested on Threads, especially as it gains traction again. Other platforms have had similar functionality for a while, so adding them to Threads makes sense. It allows you to easily return to messages later and helps you stay up to date.
In related news, Threads recently hit 130 million monthly active users, up 30 million from the previous quarter. During the company’s fourth quarter earnings call, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg noted that Threads is “growing steadily.” This is a positive sign for the platform and offers a chance to compete with Elon Musk’s X in the long term.
