How do I switch between two accounts on threads?

Threads have dominated the entire social media industry for the past few days. It deserves this recognition since it is a divergent platform competing against social media giant Twitter. If you look closely at Threads, you will find that the new app from Meta is almost identical to their renowned app, “Instagram.” I am sure you have signed up for Threads and know it works over an Instagram account. To sign up for Threads, you must have an Instagram account.

Looking at Instagram, we have plenty of features to optimize the user experience. However, Threads, based on Instagram, raises a few questions in users’ minds. Threads users want to know whether they can manage multiple accounts and, if so, how to do so. Twitter has such a feature to switch accounts, and noting that millions of Threads users are inquiring about it, here we are sharing a guide on managing accounts in Threads.

How do I switch between two accounts in threads?

Just a few days ago, Meta released Threads, even though they did not plan to release it now. Because of this, many Threads features still need to be rolled out. Among them, account switching has yet to be available on Threads. However, we will likely have all the essential features in the next few weeks. The present scenario is that Threads does not offer account switching, but you might wonder if it does. The simple answer is yes; Instagram also offers the same feature, so why would not Threads?

On Threads, you can switch between accounts, but the condition is that you have at least two accounts on it to switch over. Now, how do you switch between accounts in the Threads app? We have found various ways, such as via the profile under the Threads or Instagram apps. However, you can manage your Threads account in any of these ways. Here, we want to give you a complete overview. Let us look at switching accounts on the Threads app.

• Open the Threads app.
• Tap the Profile icon in the bottom right corner.
• Next, tap the hamburger menu appearing in the upper right corner.
• Following this, you will enter the Threads menu.
• Now, log out of that Threads account.
• After that, tap on Switch Accounts on the login page.
• Lastly, log in to that account.

Hopefully, you have successfully switched between Threads accounts after reading these instructions. Nevertheless, being based on Instagram, you can do the same by switching through the Instagram app. However, there are a few things to consider, such as whether your fellow thread users should display the thread logo on their profile. That is why we mentioned switching accounts only through the Threads app. Nevertheless, as an alternative, you should know how to switch Threads accounts without the Threads app. So, follow these steps to switch your Threads account via Instagram.

Note: When switching to a Threads account through Instagram, ensure the other account is already signed up using Instagram on Threads.

1. Open the Instagram app.
2. Tap on your profile.
3. Tap the arrow next to your profile and select the other account.
4. From there, tap on your Threads ID and then “View Threads Profile.”.
5. This way, you can also switch to a Threads account through the Instagram app.

In addition, Threads is showing many new features superior to its competitor, Twitter. The best part is that there is no limit on daily views. This is the only reason Threads received almost 1 million sign-ups just 2 hours after its release. From these highlights, Threads could be the next ruler of the social media industry. However, saying that expressly cannot be guaranteed because Musk can do anything to keep Twitter’s reputation the same as before. I would like to see what Threads can do shortly.
