First, open the App Store.
Then search for “Threads, an Instagram app.”
Choose the option posted from Instagram and then tap “Install”.
Some users report that searching for the much more obvious term “Meta Thread” or just “Thread” still doesn’t show the correct app. Instead, users are directed to a different app called Threads, published by Threads Group, Inc who quickly added a disclaimer on their download page that reads “[NOT AFFILIATED WITH THREADS BY INSTAGRAM]”.
How to get the Threads app on Android
On Android devices (e.g. most smartphones and tablets excluding iPhones and iPads) the Play Store is pre-installed.
First, open the Play Store.
Next, search for “Threads, an Instagram app.”
Choose the option posted from Instagram and then tap “Install”.
We have reports that searching for the much more intuitive term “Meta Threads” or just “Threads” brings up an entirely different download titled “Threads (Early Access)” posted by Threads Android Team. This will likely change after the Play Store quickly recognizes the Metas app as the most popular new app of that name, but for now the Threads Android team has added a disclaimer that reads “[NOT AFFILIATED W/ THREADS BY INSTAGRAM]”.
Frequent questions
Is Thread on iOS?
Yes, Threads is available for iOS devices. You can download it now from the Apple App Store.
Is it Thread on Android?
Yes, Threads is available for Android devices. You can download it now on Android Play Store.
Final thoughts
I can only imagine the panic of Threads Android Team and Threads Group, Inc (which appear to be the same organization, under different names between App Store and Play Store) this morning as over 100,000 new users downloaded their app hoping for something else. Will the disclaimer, in which they don’t bother to type the word “with”, be enough to appease the lawyers of Meta Inc? Thankfully, that’s not your problem – your problem, if I’ve done my job, has been solved! Here’s how and where you download the app.
