Meta's Threads has surpassed 400 million monthly active users, adding 50
million in the last quarter and closing the gap with rival X in mobile daily
usage. "As of a few weeks ago [there are] more than 400 million people active
on Threads every month," said Instagram head Adam Mosseri. "It's been quite
the ride over the last two years. This started as a zany idea to compete with
Twitter, and has evolved into a meaningful platform that fosters the open
exchange of perspectives. I'm grateful to all of you for making this place
what it is today. There's so much work to do from our side, more to come."
TechCrunch reports: X, meanwhile, has north of 600 million monthly active
users, according to previous statements made by its former CEO, Linda
Yaccarino. Recent data from market intelligence provider Similarweb showed
that Threads is nearing X's daily app users on mobile devices. In June 2025,
Threads' mobile app for iOS and Android saw 115.1 million daily active users,
marking a 127.8% increase compared to the previous year. On the other hand, X
reached 132 million daily active users, reflecting a 15.2% year-over-year
decline. However, Similarweb found that X's worldwide daily web visits are
well ahead of Threads, as the [...] social network saw 145.8 million average
daily web visits worldwide in June, while Threads had just 6.9 million.
