How to Enable Highest Quality Uploads in Threads

This article explains how to turn “Upload highest quality” on or off for mobile media in the Threads app.

The Threads app is a messaging app developed by Facebook for users who want to keep in touch with their closest friends and share their status. It allows users to share photos, videos, messages, stories, and more.

When you use Threads, you can switch between private and public accounts, mute or unmute people, turn offensive words and phrases on or off, view profiles you follow and your followers, turn threads and replies notifications on or off, turn following and followers notifications on or off, turn notifications from Threads on or off, enable or disable Threads posts suggestions on Instagram, enable or disable Threads posts suggestions on Facebook, turn all push notifications on or off, and more.

Threads’ mobile version also allows users to choose whether to upload photos of the highest quality. This may take a while on slow networks. When off, the media quality will be adjusted based on the network conditions.

Depending on your network conditions and preferences, you may want to turn “Upload the highest quality” on or off in Threads. If you have a strong and fast network connection, turning it on will ensure that your photos are uploaded in the highest quality possible, which can be useful if you want to preserve the details and clarity of your photos.

However, suppose you are on a slow or unreliable network. In that case, turning it off can help you save time and data, as the media quality will be adjusted based on the network conditions, resulting in faster uploads and smaller file sizes.
