How to connect the Threads app to Publer

Threads

Threads is an online social media and social networking service operated by Meta, the mother company of Instagram and Facebook.

The Threads app looks a lot like Twitter/X, with a feed that is only dedicated to text-based posts. However, you can also post photos and videos while having conversations in the form of threads, just like Twitter/X.

You can log in and create an account in the Threads app, through your Instagram account. You can create threads with up to 25 posts, each containing up to 500 characters. The first post and follow-up comments in the thread can include a link, video (up to 5 minutes), or up to 10 photos.

Lastly, Publer now provides detailed post insights and analytics for the Threads App. Plus, you can read and respond to Threads comments directly through Publer.

Navigate to the Social Accounts tab, from the navigation bar in the left.
