Threads latest UI update: Enhancing the Web3 social experience with GIFs, emojis, and mobile Enhancements.
Hey team!
Today, let's talk about the recent Threads UI update from LeoFinance.
They have been working on a new schedule, aiming to release updates every Friday.
This time around, they've released a big update that includes GIFs, emojis, and a significant mobile update.
Why are GIFs a big deal?
GIFs might seem like a small feature, but it is a remarkable improvement to the user experience.
Imagine having fun replying to others with GIFs on LeoFinance Threads.
Threads continues to be designed in a way to give a similar feel to its Web2 counterpart, Twitter.
LeoFinance's philosophy is to make it easy for new users to navigate the platform and have a familiar experience.
They believe that adding small features like GIFs and emojis adds a touch of humanity to using Threads.
Over time, they think the UX will become more engaging and lively, making it vastly different from Day 1.
Using GIFs and emojis on Threads is super easy.
Click the GIF or emoji button in the text editor, select your preferred category or search for the GIF or emoji you want, and hit "Thread" to push it to the Hive blockchain.
It works nearly identical to how it does on Twitter.
What about the mobile update?
As for the mobile update, LeoFinance has been quietly working on it in the background.
They're building a robust web application for both desktop and mobile.
They believe that the web app should be incredible and where the focus is.
From there, they can port to native IOS and Android apps, but web apps are superior in many ways.
The mobile update features an enhanced menu and an overall improved threads experience.
LeoFinance has a lot more updates, bug fixes, and other features to roll out, but this is an excellent start.
They've been using the mobile update on Hive Keychain's Mobile in-app browser, and it works great!
Threads is the best Web3 social media platform
I've said it once and I'll say it again: Threads is the best Web3 social media platform.
LeoFinance's recent UI update adds a touch of fun and humanity to using threads.
The UX is becoming more engaging and lively, making it easier for new users to navigate the platform.
While the mobile update is a great start, and we can expect more updates, bug fixes, and other features in the future.
This is just the beginning.
