Threads gets in-app swipe controls to like and hide posts on iOS\u060c<\/p>\n
The latest Threads iOS update (v 321.0) introduces new swipe controls to the app<\/a>, making it easier than ever to navigate the \u201cFor You\u201d feed. Several Threads users have mentioned this new feature, along with screenshots and screen recordings showing how it currently works for them. However, neither the @Threads<\/a> account nor Instagram Head @Mosseri<\/a> made an official announcement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n However, there's a small caveat to this nifty little addition: swipe gestures only work in the “For You” feed, which leaves room for a lot of speculation as to why it was only implemented nowhere else on the app. In addition to the \u201cFor You\u201d algorithmic feed, Threads has a \u201cFollowing\u201d tab, which includes posts from those you actually follow. This was added to the app following user protests when the app launched, and from what we can tell, it's the preferred way to browse the app's content.<\/p>\n We hope that the current limitations of the feature will eventually be expanded to allow for a more customizable experience. Threads has already rolled out features as a test, so it's possible this will happen in the future. In the meantime, if you want to try, go to the iOS app store and install or update to the latest version of the app. Once you've done that, you can start<\/a> using the new features and provide feedback based on your experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Threads gets in-app swipe controls to like and hide posts on iOS\u060c Instagram rolled out several DM features yesterday to improve user experience.
