Facebook Developing New Messaging App: Threads 

Get ready for a new Facebook messaging app: Threads

It seems that Facebook is always looking to change things up. This time, they are releasing another new messaging app reportedly called "Threads". Some are saying that the way this app functions is a direct jab at Snapchat. This app is different in the sense that it will share more information (such as location, speed, and battery life) with your closest friends. Facebook and Instagram have not announced a release date as the app is currently in a testing phase. The app is supposed to be paired with Instagram and still has all the normal features of a messaging app such as photos and text. 

Facebook is also still planning to combine WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram messaging services to send messages without switching apps. You can read more about this Facebook and Instagram Threads messaging app here.
