Twitter-killer app Threads is a newly established social media platform owned by Meta and closely connected with Instagram. Mark Zuckerberg recently introduced Threads, a text-based conversation app. This social media app is similar to Instagram because threads concentrate only on posting real-time conversations. In contrast, Instagram concentrates on visual and illustrated content such as photos, videos, and reels.
You should read through this article once if you are a new user of the Thread App. We will provide you with important options and information regarding the thread application. This article will deliver some essential instructions on accessing Blocked Profiles on Threads. In this article, we will share information on how to view Blocked Profiles on Threads. Let’s get started.
Why do we need to block someone on threads?
Sometimes, we encounter people on social media platforms with whom we do not want to interact, whether harassment, spam, or simply a desire for privacy. Threads give you the power to block these people. If you block someone in the Thread, they can not view your profile or interact with your posts.
Blocking someone in the Thread is a very simple process. Visit the profile you want to block, click on the three-dot menu in the top right, and select ‘‘Block.” Remember, when you block someone on Thread, they are also blocked on Instagram, as the two platforms are interconnected.
- If the profile bullies or harasses you, blocking them would be ideal. They may do this by tagging you in their posts, which you may not like.
- If they make some insulting comments on your post, you should block your profile. Even though you can delete comments, it won’t stop them from commenting again. You’d better block them to prevent them from commenting.
- If you don’t want someone to see what you post in the Thread, blocking that profile is the best way to avoid it.
- You can block the profile if they post unsuitable posts in threads and don’t want them to see them in your thread feed.
How do you view blocked profiles on threads?
Your Instagram account is also your Thread account. Anyone you block in the Thread will be blocked on Instagram as well. People you have blocked can now see your profile and posts and cannot connect them. You can view Blocked Profiles on Threads from within the Threads app and via Instagram. Let’s see how you can do this-
Through the thread app:
- Open the Threads app on your phone. Make sure you’re signed in to your account.
- Select the Profile button, which can be found in the lower right corner
- Tap on the Privacy icon (at the top left corner).
- After that, the next screen opens; tap on the Blocked option.
- You will now see a list of all the blocked profiles in the Thread.
Through the Instagram app:
- Open the Instagram app and sign in to the same account you use in Threads.
- Select the Profile button, which can be found in the lower right corner
- Tap the Menu button, which looks like a hamburger icon on the profile page in the upper right.
- Click on the Settings & Privacy option.
- Scroll down to the Who can see your Content section, and select Blocked.
- It will show you the list of all blocked profiles.
The profile you block on Thread will be blocked on Instagram, too, and vice versa. You can see blocked profiles from Threads and the Instagram app. You’ll see the Unblock button next to all profiles, whether you can check the block list through Instagram or the Threads app. You can tap this unblock button to unblock the profile from your Instagram and Thread.
