Could be better. – Threads from Instagram Review

But! I really love how there is an app like this because I communicate with many of my friends on Instagram because it’s quicker when you have a friend with a different brand device. I love the UI design! It’s so clean and fun. The messages send quite fast, and faster with videos than it would be on the regular Instagram app. Overall, I am enjoying the app. But, like I said, it could be better. There are bugs that need to be fixed. Some filters that I’ve downloaded from the Instagram app won’t work if it starts by pressing the screen. I wish GIFs would work and when you type a really long message, it doesn’t send the entire thing because while the message that sends has the limit, typing it doesn’t. I either suggest fixing it or actually letting us type more. I would rather have the latter however. I would love to be able to type more than have to copy and paste each section and erase some letters until it works. I also wish we didn’t have to add people to our close friends list just so you can DM them on this app. I get that that’s the point of this app, but it really limits us. I had to add people that I don’t consider as close friends just because I knew I would have to contact them sooner or later. In addition, I would love to be able to watch IG TVs because my friends send it in sometimes but I can’t watch it. Hope you can add these and fix the bugs! Thank you. This is a really important app to me.
