How to Share Instagram Posts on Threads

First thing first: Can you share Instagram posts on Threads? Yes, you can.

There are two ways to share Instagram posts on Threads:

  1. You can natively do it through Instagram's mobile app.
  2. If you want to do it on a desktop, a third-party social media management tool like Circleboom Publish can help.

  3. Tap the share button on the bottom right (usually a paper airplane icon).
  4. Select "Threads" among the sharing options.
  5. Add a caption, relevant hashtags, or other elements to customize your Thread.
  6. Tap "Share" to publish your Instagram post on Threads.

  3. You can use platform, date, or account-based filters to help you find the Instagram post that you want to share on Threads.
  4. Once you've found your post, you can see these options by it: “Post to Queue”, “Schedule Again”, and “Edit Post”.
  5. If it was only an Instagram post, you'd want to click on the "Edit Post" button and choose your Threads account.
  6. From there, you can also make changes to your post. Once you're done, you can publish or schedule it again.
