Say more with Threads — Instagram’s text-based conversation app.

Threads are where communities come together to discuss everything from topics that concern you today to what will be trending tomorrow. Whatever your interests, you can follow and connect directly with your favorite creators and others who love the same things — or create a loyal following of your own to share your ideas, opinions and creativity in the world.

A few things you can do with Threads…

■ Access your Instagram followers
Your Instagram username and verification badge are provided for you. Automatically follow the same accounts you follow on Instagram in a few taps, and discover new accounts as well.

■ Share your point of view
Create a new thread to express what’s on your mind. This is your place to be yourself, and you control who can respond.

■ Connect with friends and your favorite creators
Jump into the answers to get in on the action and react to commentary, humor and insight from creators you know and love. Find your community and connect with people who care about whatever you’re passionate about.

■ Control the conversation
Customize your settings and use controls to manage who can see your content, reply to your threads, or discuss you. Accounts you’ve blocked will carry over from Instagram, and we’ve implemented the same Community Guidelines to help ensure everyone interacts safely and authentically.

■ Find ideas and inspiration
From TV recommendations to career advice, get answers to your questions or learn something new from people-sourced conversations, thought leaders and industry experts.

■ Never miss an opportunity
Stay on top of the latest trends and live events. Whether it’s about new music, movie premieres, sports, games, TV shows, fashion, or the latest product releases, search for discussions and receive notifications anytime the your favorite profiles start a new thread.

■ Jump into the fediverse
Threads are part of fediverse, a global, open, social network of independent servers operated by third parties around the world. Servers share information with each other to enable people to connect and discover new things across the fediverse.
