Threads is nearing X’s daily app users, new data shows

Threads' mobile app for iOS and Android saw 115.1 million daily active users, representing 127.8% year-over-year growth.

Instagram Threads is close to catching up to top competitor X in terms of mobile app users, according to new data from market intelligence provider Similarweb.
