When you use your Instagram account to sign up for Threads, the app adds a Threads badge number to your Instagram profile. Instagram users can tap on your Threads badge to open your Threads profile. While this is a convenient way to port your Instagram followers to Threads, if you don’t want that to happen, you can choose to hide your Threads badge. Here’s how to do it.
