Threads will offer another way to share photos

OnThreads, you canreact to a post in various ways.This includes written and voice responses, surveys, and of course images, whether static or animated (GIF). However, it is only possible to react with an image present in your gallery.

The social networkdoes not offerIndeedno direct access to the phone camera, which would allow you to send a photo taken at that moment, specifically to respond to a publication. Currently, users are forced to exit the app to capture a snapshot, then come back to share it.Metashould at the same time also integrate the possibility of recording a draft, which is currently in the testing phase, in the same way as access to the camera previously mentioned.

Is it coming soon?

Users will soon no longer have to exit the application to take a photo, thanks to a new button.This is what reports9To5Mac, who exclusively received information fromThreadsabout it.

The new button “opens your phone’s camera directly in the Threads composer, making it easier to share photos on Threads,” Meta told 9to5Mac.

Our colleagues also specify that the functionality is already offered to a limited number of people in the United States. Users around the world will soon be entitled to it, but we do not know when this will happen. Especially sinceMetais one of the companies that does not hesitate to extend the testing phases, in order to offer a bug-free final product.

Drafts too!

In addition to direct access to the camera,Threadsshould at the same time proposethe ability to save a draft. Enough to allow users to perfect their responses if necessary, giving them additional time for reflection. Drafts are also useful in case, for example, we are interrupted while writing a response. In this case, there will no longer be a need to copy the message into Notes so as not to lose it. These small improvements offer a minimal, but still appreciable, time saving.
