A practical guide to Threads: a conversational, text-first feed where a genuine take beats a polished announcement. Scheduling Threads from our calendar is coming soon, once Meta's app review passes.
Text posts and replies that start conversations
The formats Threads expects, and what each is good for. Publishing to Threads from Social Media Digital Marketer is coming soon, once the platform's app review passes.
- Text post: Up to 500 characters. Conversational, opinion-led posts and questions spark the most replies.
- Image post: Up to 10 images; portrait and square both display cleanly in the feed.
- Video post: Up to 5 minutes; vertical fills the feed best.
Plan a week of Threads on one calendar
Once Threads is live, its posts sit on the same calendar as every other account. Today you can schedule Bluesky, Mastodon, LinkedIn, Reddit, Telegram and Discord there.
- A visual calendar and queue for the whole week
- Schedule for an exact time or add posts to the queue
- One place for every account, not a tab per platform

Reliable publishing, coming soon
Threads publishing is coming soon. It arrives once Meta's app review passes; until then, use this guide to plan. When it lands, failed publishes retry with backoff and trigger a failure alert.

Questions about Threads
Can I auto-publish to Threads?
Not yet. Threads publishing is coming soon and arrives once the platform's app review passes. Until then, connect the networks that are live today and plan Threads alongside them.
What happens if a Threads post fails?
The publisher retries with backoff. If the platform still rejects it, the post stays on your calendar in red with the reason, you get a failure alert, and one click retries it. It never disappears silently.
Do I still approve every post?
If your workspace uses approvals, yes. Posts wait for a person to approve them, in the app or through an approval link, and you can approve a whole week at once.
Threads pairs with reliable publishing, a visual calendar and queue, and cross-network analytics. Publishing to more than one place? See all channels.
