Meta’s Threads has created a buzz since the moment it stepped into the social media universe. With over 50 million signups in such a short span, this app has become one of the most popular and fastest-growing applications on the Internet.
But while the app is getting lots of attention from everyone out there, including celebrities, leading brands, and ordinary users, it is equally generating annoyance when you start digging deep into its terms and privacy policies.
This Twitter-like platform is currently referred to as a potential Twitter Killer and is a long shot at Elon Musk. However, it has unfortunately been going through some serious account deletion issues recently. And if the company doesn’t work on these issues now, it might land this “Twitter Killer” on the verge of hate in no time.
Some users claim that they cannot delete their Threads profile permanently, and these are not speculations but annoying reality. Want to dig deep into this problem? Keep scrolling the page and find out what happens to your Instagram account when you try to remove your Threads profile. Read on.
Can you keep your Instagram account when deleting Threads?
The question lurking in everyone’s mind right now is whether they can keep their IG account when removing Threads, and the simple answer is NO. Wondering why? To understand the reason, let’s recall the signup process for Threads. Maybe it will give you the answer.
To signup with Threads, you must
- Enter your Instagram credentials, including your username and password.
Did these steps ring the bell? Meta has always marketed Threads as an Instagram text-based conversation app. Has it ever promoted it as a standalone app? The answer is No.
It simply means that both Instagram and Threads are integrated together, which is why you cannot delete your Threads profile without wiping your Instagram account. In case you missed it, you yourself entered your IG credentials when signing up for Threads, then what’s this mess all about?
Technically, no one has a Threads account. It is another layer of Instagram that you opt-in to, then how can you delete your Threads profile individually?
So, any new user who is looking forward to trying a Threads account must ensure to read their privacy policies and conditions to avoid any last-minute surprises. Threads have introduced unusual limitations to Threads’ profile customization, with a key point of contention being that your Instagram handle is so tied into this service that you will have to wipe both profiles to get rid of your Threads account permanently.
Is there any other way to remove your Threads profile?
Got stuck with Threads and wondering if there’s any way (apart from wiping your Instagram account) to free yourself from its clutches? Well, fortunately, Yes, there is a way out to banish your Threads account for good.
Conclusion
Tired of that “bird” app? Meta’s Threads is here to entertain you. But before you get tempted by its features and marketing, be mindful that it’s not a standalone app and is linked to your Instagram account. Once you signed up with Threads, there’s no way to remove it. Hence, be cautious with their policies and make a move accordingly.
