Can you schedule posts on Threads?

Short answer: Yes, you can schedule posts on Threads. But not directly. You'll need a third-party Threads post scheduler for that. And Circleboom Publish is one of them⬇️

Timing is crucial for your social media posts. Posting at the right moment can mean the difference between a post that goes viral and one that falls flat.

There are also other benefits to scheduling, such as;

• Saving time by pre-scheduling posts and letting them go out automatically, even when you're offline.
• Maintaining consistency by ensuring your content is published at optimal times, regardless of your personal schedule.
• Optimizing reach by scheduling posts for your audience during peak engagement times.
• Planning ahead by coordinating your content calendar and avoiding last-minute rushes.

And unlike more established platforms like X (former Twitter), Threads doesn’t yet offer a built-in post-scheduling feature (it is planned to be out there soon, though).

This might seem like a limitation, especially for those of us who rely on scheduling to manage multiple accounts or maintain a consistent posting cadence.
