Threads, a text-based conversation app developed by Meta (the parent company of Instagram) was released on Wednesday evening (local time).


Threads offers a unique platform that has the potential to rival (replace?!) Twitter, providing an alternative for social media users seeking a new experience.


Here’s a breakdown of what Threads has to offer, how to join, and how to make the most of this exciting new community.

  1. Seamless Integration with Instagram: To join Threads, you must have an existing Instagram account. The platform requires you to use your Instagram login credentials to sign in. Once you've launched your Threads account, your Instagram username will be automatically ported over, ensuring a seamless transition. Additionally, you have the opportunity to create a customizable profile within Threads, allowing you to personalize your presence on the platform.

  2. Publishing Short Posts and Updates: Threads enables you to share your thoughts and updates through short posts of up to 500 characters. There are no hashtags to report on at this time.

  3. Real-Time Conversations and Engagement: Engage in real-time conversations with your connections through Threads. You can interact with others by posting text, videos, and photos, fostering meaningful discussions and connections within the community.

  4. Curated Feed and Discovery: Your Threads feed will feature posts from people and accounts you follow on Instagram or Threads, ensuring you stay connected with your preferred content. Additionally, Threads provides recommendations for undiscovered content, expanding your horizons and introducing you to new and exciting voices.

Threads is available for free download on both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store in 100 countries. Simply search for "Threads by Meta" and begin the adventure!


Change is an integral part of the digital landscape, and Threads offers a fresh alternative for those seeking a new social media experience. It can be confusing or daunting at first, but we’ll get through it together!


If you have any questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. I’d be happy to schedule a Strategy Session (simply mention “Threads” for a bonus 30 minutes - so 90 minutes total - at the one hour rate). Or, we can discuss how we could add Threads into the scope of our work together!
