Threads may allow you to add music to your posts in the future

Meta’s Threads is an internal prototype of the ability to add music to posts, the company confirmed to TechCrunch. The option to add music to posts is already available on Meta’s other social apps, Instagram and Facebook. It seems the company is now considering bringing the feature to Threads, its X competitor.

The feature has not yet been publicly tested and was first seen by reverse engineering Alessandro Paluzziwhich often finds unreleased features while they are still in development.

The option to add music to posts could be a welcome addition for people who want to add a little more color to their posts and show off their musical taste, as it would be somewhat reminiscent of the MySpace era. However, not everyone is likely to be a fan of places with music, since they can be distracting.

As with any other internal prototype, it is not known if or when Meta plans to roll out the feature.

TechCrunch reported last week that Threads is too internal prototyping the ability to set a display name and add a cover image to profiles. The new features would bring Threads’ user experience more in line with its competitors, including X and Bluesky.
