Second iOS version for the Threads app has been released

The parent company of Threads, Meta, just made available the second upgrade for its well-liked microblogging software for iOS. 

This most recent update fixes a number of problems with the previous version while also introducing a number of new features. The creator of Threads, Cameron Roth, has offered commentary on the distribution of this update.

The choice to roll out these updates was made in reaction to a discernible drop in the number of daily active users of the app, which was linked to the lack of essential capabilities offered on competitor platforms

The next upgrade for Threads, which is already being sent out to users, was just revealed by Threads developer Cameron Roth in a post on the microblogging site. A number of intriguing new features are expected to be included in the update, including the ability to translate text, the addition of a Follows tab to the Activity feed, the ability to subscribe to unfollowed individuals, among other improvements.

Notably, the inclusion of the Follows page will enable users to quickly track accounts that have just begun following them. The purpose of these improvements is to improve user experience and respond to community desires for Threads.

A new feature in the update also enables users to get alerts from accounts they don’t follow. Users may now follow accounts straight from their followers list as well. Additionally, the site debuts tappable reposter labels. The update also fixes a number of problems and reduces the binary size for a better user experience.

In order to obtain the most recent update, users may need to restart the app or wait until the end of the business day, according to Roth. Server-delivered flags are used to disseminate the update.

When Threads originally debuted in early July, it had about 49 million daily active users (DAU), according to a number of statistics sources. But at the end of the second week, this figure had decreased to 23 million DAU, or by 50%. After employing Threads for a week, data analysts like SensorTower have likewise seen a considerable drop in the amount of users logging in.

Threads was no different from other new applications in that it attracted a lot of curiosity. The app, which neatly uses users’ current account credentials and does not require a new account, was heavily promoted by Instagram.
