You can also choose to follow all of the same accounts you already follow on Instagram, given that they have signed up for Threads as well. If you have an Instagram account, you can log in with the same username and password. “Whatever it is you’re interested in, you can follow and connect directly with your favorite creators and others who love the same things - or build a loyal following of your own to share your ideas, opinions and creativity with the world.” “Threads is where communities come together to discuss everything from the topics you care about today to what’ll be trending tomorrow,” says a description from Instagram on Apple’s App Store. Here’s how Meta describes the text-based conversation app: If you want to download Threads on your phone or tablet, it is currently available for free on iOS on the App Store as well as on Android via the Google Play store.
