Twitter rival Meta Threads has finally added a way to switch between multiple accounts without logging out.
The social networking app announced on Thursday that users can now exchange accounts on its mobile apps by pressing the profile icon in the bottom right. Users can tap on “Add profile” option after long press to add a new profile.
This makes it easy for users to switch between work and personal profiles. Instagram head Adam Mosseri did not specify if there is a limit to the number of accounts you can add in the profile transfer feature.

Interestingly, the profile feature of the text-based social networking app was announced on the same day as Facebook which allows people to have multiple personal profiles on the Blue app.
More than three months after its launch, Threads is breaking even by launching new features. Late last month, it began testing full-text search features in New Zealand and Australia. Earlier this month, the company launched its search functionality globally.
In September, Threads also launched features such as turning on notifications for 24 hours for a particular post and the ability to cite web posts.
Thread’s rivals are also part of the delivery of a competitive social media landscape. Earlier this week, Mastodon introduced version 4.2 release with improved search for profiles and posts, automatic quick action suggestions in the search box, a new web interface with more improved thread indicators and article previews, and a new Privacy and Reach settings tab.
