Thread profile can only be deleted by deleting Instagram account
After the launch of Meta's version of Twitter, Threads, the company has announced the current privacy policy for it.
As per the supplemental privacy policy, users who want to delete Threads will have to delete their entire Instagram account. However, users can deactivate their Threads profile anytime they want to.
To do that, go to the profile tab, tap the two lines icon for settings, tap "Account," tap "Deactivate profile," and then the "Deactivate Threads profile" button.
The Twitter rival, Threads, gained immediate popularity after it rolled out in 100 countries and received 10 million sign-ups in just seven hours.
Although the deleting policy is in effect for now, the Instagram team is working on making it better.
