Meta has officially launched its Threads social media app for Quest VR headsets, the company announced on Tuesday. This move brings the popular microblogging platform to virtual reality users, expanding Meta's ecosystem of apps across its hardware devices.
The launch comes just a month after Meta introduced Threads to its Ray-Ban Display AR glasses, signaling a broader push to make the app accessible across different form factors. By bringing Threads to Quest headsets, Meta is giving users a new way to interact with their social feed in an immersive environment.
This announcement follows recent news that Threads has crossed 500 million monthly active users, a significant milestone for the platform since its launch. The rapid growth and expanding device support highlight Meta's commitment to growing Threads as a key social platform.
With the Quest version, users can now browse and post to Threads while in VR, potentially offering a more engaging and hands-free experience. This integration is part of Meta's broader strategy to blend social media with its virtual and augmented reality hardware.
