About this app

Discover new perspectives and connect through conversation on Threads.

See what people are talking about right now—from niche interests to big moments. With communities, you can find people who also care about your interests on Threads. Reply, listen, share or just follow along.

Here’s what you can do on Threads:

■ Start a thread, share your take
Have something on your mind? Take it to Threads. Share a thought, ask a question or open up a conversation. There’s more than one way to kick things off with text, images, polls, ghost posts and more.

■ Jump into replies
Jump into the discussion, react to new ideas or just see where the conversation goes. Every thread is an invitation to join in.

■ Keep up with what’s trending
From live scores to breaking moments, Threads helps you stay close to what’s happening —and join the conversation when you’ve got something to say.

■ Control the content you see
Control who can reply to you, mention you or see your posts. Use Hidden Words to filter out posts and replies that include words or phrases you don’t want to see—so your experience stays on your terms.

■ Go deep on your interests
Follow friends, creators and communities for every interest. Threads is built to help you discover new voices and join conversations—starting with the communities you care about most.

■ Connect over chat
Keep the conversation going privately with 1:1 and group DMs. When a public thread gets more personal, move it to your inbox to go deeper or share it with a smaller group."

An unsung treasure, this app is great as an artist to let loose and build community in a way that's as engaging as old Tumblr and Twitter. It's definitely more for text posts, but it's really fun to ask questions and get feedback and see other people's art. It's a perfect companion to Insta, and the algorithm really is tailored to the way I use the app.

I enjoy using Threads, but I've been having difficulties with my social media accounts. My Instagram and Facebook accounts have been experiencing suspension and access issues, and it's been frustrating not knowing why. I would appreciate better customer support, clearer explanations, and assistance recovering my accounts. I love connecting with friends, family, and people on Threads, and I hope these issues can be resolved soon. Thank you for listening to my feedback.

my chief complaint about the app is that it gets annoying to have to report and block bots. On my phone, the option is there to also block after reporting, but tapping that option slides the button down to a place where I can't reach it, requiring me to back out, finish the report, and then finally block the profile to ensure they don't see me and I don't see them
