Threads confirm new save feature, similar to Instagram and X

Threads is introducing a new feature to allow users to save posts for later access in a move that brings it in line with other platforms.

Instagram chief Adam Mosseri has been a prominent voice on Threads through its formative stage and with his close involvement in developing the app, he confirmed yesterday the new feature would “broadly” be available immediately. With Threads only just launched in July 2023, the platform is still in its fledgling phase and ahead of its first anniversary, there are various development works in action as Meta seeks to boost its appeal. Head of Instagram Mosseri said they were working on two “ most requested ” features in the form of a native camera button and a ‘save post’ motion by swiping down on the screen.
