SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15 (Xinhua) -- Meta's Threads on Thursday announced new features to mark the first anniversary of launching its web version in August 2023.

The updates include the ability to store up to 100 drafts, Insights screen and column-rearrangement features.

The new user Insights screen can show the age, gender, and location of people who view and engage with you. The screen also shows total views and interactions with your posts bifurcated by followers and non-followers, the company said.

The column-rearrangement features can allow the users rearrange their searches, liked posts, activity, saved posts, profile and Insights in different order.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that the company planned to add a post-scheduling feature soon.

Earlier this month, Threads reached the milestone of 200 million monthly active users, almost 13 months after its initial launch.

Threads' prime rival X (formerly Twitter) had more than 600 million monthly users in May, according to its owner Elon Musk.
