Threads Rolls Out 24-Hour Notifications and Quote Posts from the Web

Threads

Threads has rolled out two new features. Firstly, on mobile, users can now activate 24-hour notifications for a conversation by tapping a bell icon within a thread, eliminating the need to follow a specific account. Secondly, users can quote posts from the recently launched web version by using the new 'quote' option beneath the repost logo.

Why it Matters: Instagram is continuously enhancing Threads to encourage greater adoption and usage.

The 24-hour notification feature offers a convenient way for users to track conversations briefly and participate as they wish. Enabling the ability to quote posts from the web addresses a previously missing element, aligning Threads' web experience more closely with other platforms like X, where quoting is a widely used feature. This enhancement allows users to share others' posts with their commentary, fostering increased engagement—a valuable addition to Threads.
