Meta's Threads application is now available for desktop computers.

The update will bring the new platform one step closer to competing with X, the new name for Twitter, while also encouraging users to use the app more.

Meta announced that Threads users will soon be able to log in, post, view, and interact with other posts through their desktop browsers when the web version launches in the coming days. The company said it plans to add more desktop-specific features in the future.

Threads launched in early July with resounding success, attracting over 100 million registrations in its first week. However, users realized the platform fundamentally lacked many features to compete with Twitter, such as trending topics, search functionality, and direct messaging. Threads has continuously released minor updates recently, but the launch of the web version is expected to attract users back.

Meta employees have been revealing for weeks that a desktop version of Threads is being tested internally.

Other features Threads added in the past month include “repost” and “like” tabs in users’ profiles, a chronologically tracked feed, and a button to share themed posts to Instagram DMs.
