The last feature of Threads is, that it lets you put a location status on your story for a few hours. The option ranges for 1 to 4 hours assuming your location will change in that time period.

As explained by the Company itself, “For example, Auto Status might use your precise location to show your friends that you’re “ At a cafe.” Or Auto Status might detect that you’re biking and set your status to “ On the Move.” Before this is enabled, you’ll be told what information Auto Status is requesting and will be asked to specifically agree.”###
