JE Technology Desk: Instagram-backed Threads which was recently introduced as the Twitter rival is confirmed to get a lot of new features including the following tab, and edit button later this week. However, it already has a lot of features which it carries from Meta’s popular photo-sharing application. For those unaware, both Instagram and Threads have a rage shake feature using which the users can easily report their problems.

The rage-shaking feature first appeared in 2021. To use the feature, users must shake their smartphones vigorously, and a new popup will emerge where they may report their difficulties. Meta asks the users if anything is wrong with the pop-up. Users can also report an issue by selecting the option. The popup also instructs users on how to report abuse or spam. Furthermore, the popup gives the user the option to turn off or on the fury shake feature.
