How to sign up for Threads account from Meta

Meta’s Threads new social network (a new aim to take on Twitter) has finally launched on July 6, and in this guide, you’ll learn the steps to download the app on your phone and sign up for the service.

According to the company, Threads is a new social media platform for sharing text updates and engaging in public conversations. Essentially, this is another Twitter since it describes everything that Twitter does.

Although Threads is similar to Twitter, Threads doesn’t have a website. Instead, to access the service, you have to install the dedicated app available through the Google Play Store for Android devices and Apple AppStore for iPhone devices. Also, the app was designed by the Instagram team, which means that your Threads account is linked to your Instagram account.

This guide will teach you the easy steps to sign up and access the new Threads social network from Meta.

Install and Sign up for Threads on Android or iPhone

To sign up for Threads on Android (or iPhone), use these steps:

  1. Open Google Play Store (or Apple AppStore).

  3. Click the Install button from Google Play Store (or Apple AppStore) to get the app.
