Threads scheduling, as a native capability, is still thin. Meta has been adding a basic schedule option in the app and opened a Threads API so third-party tools can queue posts, but there's no full-featured native scheduler, so most people schedule Threads through a cross-network tool.

  • Free, within the Threads app and via the Threads API
  • A basic native scheduling option, rolling out and limited
  • Third-party schedulers can publish to Threads through the API
  • There's no product to buy here. Threads itself has been adding a basic native scheduling option in the app, and Meta's Threads API lets approved third-party tools (Buffer, Hootsuite, and others) publish to Threads on a schedule.
  • The Threads API has no true scheduled-publish field, so third-party tools hold the post and publish it at the chosen time rather than handing Threads a future timestamp.
  • Native scheduling availability is uneven and rolling out, which is why most people schedule Threads through a dedicated cross-network tool instead.
