It’s the lack of features for me ?

I know I’m late to the party and all, but dang, I don’t even know if this party was worth coming to. Auto-captioning works great (granted, I haven’t thrown any obnoxious words at it to try to figure out yet), but I want my video filters! Not the crazy face changing ones, just the whole camera/vibey ones. And you can’t change the font of the captioning like you can in your regular stories. If the captioning is really the only special thing you can do in this app - you can already private message a video to your friends in the main app, tf? - why not just make that a new feature IN THE MAIN APP? Y’all are taking up space on my phone for.......what exactly?
Stop the illegal act!

Today I noticed Threads was using my camera when I wasn’t. The camera wasn’t on. I was chatting with a friend but the green dot which tells you that the camera is currently being used, was on. This is clearly, blatantly illegal.
GREEN DOT!!!

I thought I might as well try to leave this review for everyone to notice, when you open the threads app the green dot at the top of your screen normally near your battery percentage, shows up, This green dot was added in the iOS 14 update which shows when your camera is on or off, there is also an orange dot which shows when your microphone is on. I just though I would let anyone and EVERYONE know when you are in the app the camera is constantly on. Have a good day and be safe please!
heyyyy

Thanks to new iOS feature this app use your camera as soon as you open the app. I have no idea why this app is using my camera when I’m reading my DMS.... instant delete!!!
PUT STORIES BACK

The whole reason I got this app was to stay away from Explore Feed and regular feed on Instagram and only connect with friends, but I can only receive messages from close friends (can't add groups from my Instagram DMs, and most importantly I loved being able to catch up on my friends' stories but you took that away!! Who does that?? App is now essentially worthless unless someone wants to send me a DM directly and I can't see my groups from insta cause they're not all close friends. So stupid. So bummed - I was so excited to replace Instagram with this app.
Not Perfect but So Useful

I love that I can get notifications from just close friends by disabling all Instagram notifications and leaving these enabled. Granted, that should probably be a setting toggle in IG (or it may now be that way), but if it takes a second app to get that, so be it.
