Threads announces new features: mute notifications and quote controls
Threads introduces mute notifications & quote controls. Users can now manage individual post notifications & control who can reshare their content, enhancing their Threads experience.
On May 21, 2024, Threads announced two new features for its users: mute notifications and quote controls.
Mute Notifications
Previously, users could not mute notifications for individual posts within Threads. This update allows users to mute notifications for specific posts, providing greater control over their notification preferences.
Quote Controls
Threads has also implemented quote controls. Users can now limit who can quote their posts and manually unquote any unwanted quotes.
Previous Testing and Wider Availability
These features were previously tested with a limited group of users. Based on positive user feedback, Threads has now rolled out these features to the entire user base.
Additional Update
Threads is also currently testing a new interface for its web version, inspired by TweetDeck. This interface offers multiple customizable columns and real-time post updates. However, there is no official announcement regarding the wider release of this new web interface.
Downloading the Latest Version
To access the new mute notifications and quote controls features, users are encouraged to download the latest version of the Threads app.
