It is integrated with Instagram's 'Close friends' feature to allow users to send images photos and texts privately to others, and also has Instagram's photo editing system embedded into the app.In December 2021, Threads was discontinued and shut down, mainly due to most features being rolled out Instagram and low usage compared to other social media applications.
