Threads
Schedule Threads posts, polls and carousels
Plan text posts, carousels of photos and videos, polls and 24-hour posts, choose who can reply, answer replies and mentions, and see what every post did.
Why Posto for Threads
Everything Threads can do, planned ahead
-
Carousels of up to 20
Mix photos and videos in one carousel, with alt text for each picture.
-
Polls with up to 4 answers
Ask a question on a text post; Threads closes the poll by itself.
-
Topics from your hashtags
Hashtags at the end of the text become the post’s topic, and the text stays clean.
-
Spoilers, quotes and 24-hour posts
Hide words or the media behind a spoiler, quote your earlier post, or post something that disappears in a day.
-
You choose who can reply
Everyone, followers, the people you follow or mention — and approve replies before they show.
-
Replies and mentions in one inbox
Answer and hide replies, and answer posts that mention you, next to your other networks.

Questions
Threads questions
Can I schedule polls on Threads?
Yes, on a text post: up to %options% answers of up to %option_length% characters each. Threads decides when the poll closes, so it takes no end date from Posto, and the composer tells you so.
What happens to my hashtags?
Threads takes one topic per post instead of hashtags in the text. Posto cuts the hashtags at the end of the text and sends the first one as the topic, unless the post already has one. A setting of the channel turns this off.
Can Posto post the first reply for me?
Yes. Write it in the composer, and Posto posts it under your post right after it is published.
Can I delete a published post from Posto?
Yes. And a post you delete in the Threads app is marked as deleted in your queue and calendar.
Can I answer replies and direct messages?
Replies and mentions, yes, in one list, and you can hide a reply. Threads’ API has no direct messages, so Posto has none for Threads either.
Can I see who my followers are?
Yes, from 100 followers: age, gender, top countries and cities, next to the numbers of every post.
