It looks like Meta may be window dressing for a full-fledged Threads web version. Reports from within Meta suggest that the mobile app could be as soon as this week, allowing users to stay connected with friends, family, and colleagues in a reliable, secure environment.
Meta, a mobile-only messaging platform, started gaining traction in the mobile space earlier this year. Created by the team that brought us uber-successful chat app WhatsApp, Meta is a secure and easy-to-use app that functions like WhatsApp — but it has several advantages over its counterpart.
First and foremost, conversations in Meta stay private, meaning other users can’t see or access the messages you send and receive, even if someone has your Meta account and they can read your messages. This is a huge benefit that makes Meta a preferred choice for users looking for a secure messaging platform.
Not only that, but it offers much more efficiency and productivity than most other apps. It allows users to create various “Threads” to quickly split conversations apart and keep track of them better. Meta also has voice and video support and a supportive user community.
It appears that the team behind Meta is now focusing on making the app available to more people by launching a web version. According to reports, the web version of Meta should be made available early this week. This could make it much easier for users to stay connected across various devices (mobile, web, etc.), because they won’t need to download the mobile app every time they switch devices.
The web version of Meta could also help to encourage more people to join, as it will expand the reach of the app beyond just mobile users who need to manually download it.
We can expect to learn more about Meta’s web version over the course of this week, but it looks like an exciting development that could open Meta up to a wider audience and make it the go-to messaging system for many users.
