That is a kind of options that, when you see it, you’re like: “Why didn’t they add that earlier than?”
Within the newest model of the Threads app, the Threads group has added a brand new, auto-inserted Thread depend to your linked posts, indicating what number of posts there are within the full sequence, and the place the reader is as much as.
As you’ll be able to see in this screenshot, posted by app researcher Radu Oncescu, now, while you create a multi-post threads, Threads will embrace a depend on the finish of every publish.
So reasonably than you having to manually enter “1/3” or comparable, Threads will now do it for you, which can make it simpler to truly create Threads.
So it’s true to the title of the app, whereas it’ll even work should you return to a Thread and add extra to it (or take posts out), updating the publish depend in reflection of your modifications.
It’s an excellent replace, which, actually, needs to be an auto-addition for X as nicely, offering a easy approach to enhance multi-post threads, and be certain that readers perceive that there’s extra context.
So it’s a comparatively small change, by way of broader performance, however a useful one, which can be of profit.
It’s not out there to all customers as but (I attempted it and it didn’t work for me), but it surely seems to be prefer it’s coming quickly.
We have requested the Threads group for more information on this replace, and we’ll replace this publish if/after we hear again.
