How to Switch Between Two Accounts on Threads?

For the past few days, Threads has dominated the entire social media industry. It deserves this recognition since it seems to be a divergent platform competing against social media giant Twitter. If you take a closer look 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 are aware that 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. But 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 it can be executed. Twitter has such a feature to switch accounts, and noting the fact that millions of Threads users are inquiring about it, here we are sharing a guide on how to manage accounts in Threads.

How to Switch Between Two Accounts on Threads?

Just a few days ago, Meta released Threads, even though they didn’t plan to release it at this time. Because of this, many Threads features still need to be rolled out. Among them, Account Switching is one that is not yet available on Threads. However, it is likely that we will have all the essential features in the next couple of weeks. So, the present scenario is that Threads does not offer account switching, but you might be wondering if it does. The simple answer is yes, after all, Instagram also offers the same feature, so why wouldn’t 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, you might be wondering how to switch between accounts on the Threads app. For this, we have found various ways, such as via the profile under the Threads app or through the Instagram app. However, you can manage your Threads accounts in any of these ways. Here, we want to give you a complete overview. So, let’s have a look at switching accounts on the Threads app.

>
• Open the Threads App.
• Tap the Profile icon at 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 from that Threads account.
• After that, tap on Switch accounts on the login page.
• Lastly, log in to that account.

Hopefully, you’ve successfully switched between Threads accounts after reading these instructions. But, 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 user should display the thread logo on their profile. That’s the sole reason we mentioned switching accounts only through the Threads app. But 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, make sure that the other account is already signed up using Instagram on Threads.

1. Open your 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 on “View Threads Profile”.
5. This way, you can switch to a Threads account through the Instagram app as well.

In addition, Threads is showing many new features that are superior to its competitor, Twitter. The best part that I personally like is that there is no limitation on daily views. I guess this is the only reason why Threads received almost 1 million sign-ups in just 2 hours after its release. From these highlights, it seems that Threads could be the next ruler of the social media industry. But saying that specifically can’t be guaranteed because Musk can do anything to keep Twitter’s reputation the same as before. It would be interesting to see what Threads can do in the near future.
