In a recent update, Threads, Meta’s microblogging platform, has rolled out an eagerly awaited ‘Save’ feature, enhancing user interaction and experience. This new addition allows users to bookmark posts for future reference, providing a seamless way to keep track of their favorite content.
Enhancing User Experience with Bookmarking
Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram, shared insights into the expanded availability of the ‘Save’ feature on Threads. Users can now conveniently bookmark posts by selecting the three-dot menu on each post and choosing ‘Save’ from the dropdown options. This offers a practical solution for users who wish to revisit interesting content without the fear of it getting lost in the ever-scrolling digital landscape.
Mosseri hinted at the potential influence saved posts could have on Threads’ algorithm and feed, suggesting that while changes might be on the horizon, the implementation remains uncertain at this stage.
How to Save Posts on Threads?
- Open Threads and Select the three-dot menu located at the top-right corner of each post.
- Choose ‘Save’ from the dropdown options.

Broader Innovations on Threads
In addition to the ‘Save’ feature, Threads is experimenting with a ‘Today’s topics’ section, showcasing real-time trending posts without the need for hashtags. This feature aims to foster community engagement, encouraging users to participate in discussions on various subjects. It is part of Meta’s ongoing efforts to transform Threads into a more interactive and user-friendly platform.
