Threads App

Threads App is a social networking platform owned by an American company named Meta Platforms.

Launched as a Twitter alternative, the Threads app has a pretty similar interface to Twitter. Unlike Instagram and Facebook, users can post threads, reply to others and follow their favourite people on Threads.

What makes Threads a real competitor to Twitter is it lets users reply in the form of text, links, photos and videos.

The launch of Threads comes a few days after Elon Musk launched a new policy, restricting regular users to view over 600 Tweets a day. Ever since Elon Musk acquired Twitter, there have been numerous controversies that forced people to look for an alternative.

If you are one of those users then Threads is a great option for you. There is no denying that Threads does not have enough audience right now but don’t forget that it is owned by Mark Zuckerberg, who has a loyal user base of billions of people.

Notably, our website Threadsappapk.com is dedicated to Instagram Threads only. Here, we will cover everything about the application.

Without any further ado, let’s get started:
