Anyone with a Threads account will know that the log-in system for Meta’s new Twitter-like social network is the same as Instagram. Essentially it’s one account for both services, and that means you couldn’t delete one without also deleting the other — which isn’t ideal. Thankfully that’s no longer the case.
Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri announced this news earlier this week, revealing that the latest version of the Threads mobile app lets you delete a Threads account without affecting your Instagram. It’s a feature that users have been asking about since Threads first launched. In case they ever got bored of the new service, but still want to stick with Instagram.
