Meta is initiating a redesign of the web version of Threads, as announced by Connor Hayes, the head of Threads. This update will finally introduce direct messaging, a feature that has been available on the mobile app since last June. The new layout will enhance navigation with added shortcuts for features like saved posts, insights, and activity, which were previously hard to locate. Users will now be able to access their Threads inbox directly from the web, improving overall functionality. The last major update to the Threads website occurred in April, which added basic features, but since then, Meta's focus has shifted largely to the mobile app. The company has not specified when the new design will be fully rolled out but has indicated ongoing investment in enhancing the platform. Additionally, updates to the mobile app are also underway, including changes to how replies are displayed, making conversations easier to follow.
