Unthreading Instagram: There is no way to wholly disconnect Threads from your Instagram account because it is fundamentally linked to it.
You can eliminate Threads from Instagram by removing the Threads badge (a unique number that appears beneath your Instagram bio) from your profile. You can permanently conceal the Threads insignia by clicking on it.
The removal of the Threads insignia from your Instagram account is irreversible and permanent, so there is no way to regain it.
Unthreading Instagram: Can Threads be removed from your Instagram account?
Yes, but only in part. Since Instagram powers Threads, the new social media app does not allow you to completely disconnect your Instagram account from Threads. Currently, the only way to prevent the Threads badge from appearing on your Instagram profile is to erase it from your Instagram account.
The Threads emblem is a number that appears beneath your account’s bio on Instagram’s Profile page. It is a unique number that is assigned to your Instagram account when you sign up for Threads, and it signifies the number of users who joined the new app before you.
Instagram indicates that this Threads badge is transitory, suggesting that it may be removed or replaced in the future. If you do not want others to see this insignia on your profile, you can permanently remove it from your Instagram account.

How to remove Threads from your Instagram profile
As previously explained, the only method to remove Threads from your Instagram account is to remove the Threads badge from your Instagram profile. If you desire to do so, you can begin by launching Instagram on your mobile device.
Tap the profile tab in the bottom right corner of Instagram.
When your Instagram profile appears on the subsequent screen, touch the Threads badge at the top (a clickable number that appears just below your bio).
This will open a pop-up window stating “You’re [number]th to join Threads.” Tap Hide badge at the bottom of Instagram to hide the Threads insignia.
Instagram will notify you that removing this badge is an irreversible action via a validation prompt. To remove the badge, select Remove Badge at this prompt.
The Threads insignia has been removed from your Instagram profile, and it will no longer be visible to anyone who visits your page.
Unthreading Instagram: What happens when Threads is removed from Instagram?
When you remove the Threads insignia from your Instagram profile, the badge number that previously appeared beneath your Instagram bio will be hidden. Visitors to your Instagram profile will not be able to see this information and determine whether or not you have a Threads account.
This is, however, an irreversible procedure, which means you will not be able to reinstate the Threads badge to your Instagram profile. Since Instagram states that the Threads badge is a transient feature, it is possible that you will be permitted to bring it back in some form if the platform so chooses.
Notably, even if you remove the Threads badge from Instagram’s original programme, your Instagram profile will remain linked to your Threads account. Visitors to your Threads profile will be able to access your Instagram account by touching the Instagram logo in the upper-right corner of your profile.
That is all there is to know about removing Instagram Threads.
