But if you’re uncomfortable with this feature, you can always choose not to activate it. Because image recognition is carried out locally, the images never leave your devices. This saves you the trouble of sieving through the endless scroll of images on your device.

The media gallery is also equipped with image recognition so that you can search for images by entering certain keywords. You can even add captions and edit the photos right from the app to crop, add text, or apply a filter to your image. A media gallery will appear and you can select the photos you wish to send. On Threema’s integrated media gallery, users can conveniently send images and videos by tapping on the paper clip icon in a chat.
