Threads, the popular messaging app by Meta, is rolling out two exciting updates to enhance user experience and give the app more momentum.
The first update is the introduction of an edit button, which allows users to correct mistakes without having to repost their content.
Unlike X (formerly Twitter), which took 16 years to add an edit button behind a paywall, Threads is offering this feature for free to all users on both mobile and web platforms.
Once you post something on Threads, you will have a five-minute window to make any necessary edits, as reported by 9to5Google. This timeframe is reasonable and comparable to X, where users have up to an hour to tweak their tweets.
However, it is important to note that Threads does not currently display the edit history for a post, which may raise concerns about transparency if significant changes are made to a post that gains quick traction.
In addition to the edit button, Threads is also introducing the option to post voice clips with karaoke-style transcription.
This update is particularly beneficial for users who prefer speaking over typing or rely on voice-to-text features. With this new feature, communication on Threads becomes more versatile and inclusive, catering to a wider range of user preferences.
Furthermore, it seems that Threads is also working on a trending topics feature. While details about this update are yet to be revealed, it holds promise for users who want to stay up-to-date with the latest discussions and trends on the platform.
This addition will further enhance the app’s functionality and keep users engaged with relevant and popular topics.
