Threads scheduler
Schedule Threads posts and chains
Batch a week of Threads in one sitting. Write your posts and reply chains, drop them on the calendar, and Lemonpost publishes them automatically through the official Threads API. Even while you sleep.
Every Threads format, scheduled
If you can post it on Threads, you can schedule it in Lemonpost.
Posts
Schedule a single post with up to 500 characters and as many as 10 images, or a video. Everything Threads lets you post, planned ahead.
Reply chains
Write a whole chain and schedule it as one. Lemonpost posts the first, then adds each reply in order, the way threads are built on the platform.
Cross-post with Instagram
Threads sits right next to Instagram in Meta's world. Compose once and send the same idea to both, tuned for each.
Limit-aware composer
Lemonpost counts characters as you type against the 500-character limit, so a post never gets clipped or fails when it's time to publish.
Four steps
How to schedule Threads posts
- 1
Connect your Threads account
Link your Threads account in a couple of clicks. Lemonpost publishes through the official Threads API, so your account stays safe.
- 2
Write your post
Write a single post or a full chain in Lemon Studio, add images or a video, and check it against the limit. You can even draft posts from Claude or ChatGPT.
- 3
Pick a time
Drop the post on your calendar, or add it to the queue and let it fill your schedule. Analytics shows when your followers are actually online.
- 4
Let it publish
Lemonpost posts it for you, chains in the right order. Then track how it did without opening the app.
One place for Threads
Built for how you actually post
Content calendar
See your whole week in one view
Plan your Threads posts next to everything else. Gaps are obvious, so you keep the account alive on the days you'd otherwise go quiet.
Drag and drop. Move a post to a new day and it's rescheduled. No forms, no fuss.
Queue it. Set your posting times once and Lemonpost slots new posts into the next open spot.
Every account together. All your Threads accounts, plus every other platform, on the same calendar.
Lemon Studio
Write once, post everywhere
Turn one idea into a Threads post, a tweet and a Bluesky post from one screen. Lemonpost checks each platform's character limit as you write.
Cross-post chains. Post the same chain to Threads, X and Bluesky, each within its own limits.
AI when you want it. Draft posts with AI, or publish straight from Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client.
Limit-aware. Threads allows 500 characters, X allows 280. Lemonpost flags anything over before it can fail.
Engage inbox
Keep up with the replies
Engage pulls your replies and mentions into one inbox alongside every other platform, so a post that takes off doesn't leave the conversation hanging.
One inbox. Replies and mentions from every account, together in one place.
Reply faster. Answer from Lemonpost instead of hopping between apps.
Stay in the conversation. Threads rewards accounts that talk back. Engage makes that quick.
Why schedule Threads posts in advance?
Threads rewards accounts that post often and join conversations. Doing both live, all day, is exhausting. Scheduling lets you batch your posts and chains when you have the ideas, and Lemonpost drips them out so you can spend your live time actually replying.
Post often without being online all day
Threads is a fast, conversational feed, and the accounts that grow there show up multiple times a day. Trying to do that in the moment keeps pulling you back into the app. Scheduling breaks the loop: write a batch in one focused session, spread it across the week, and your presence holds steady while your attention goes elsewhere.
Post when your followers are online
There's no single best time that works for everyone. Your best window is when your own followers are active, and that shifts by audience and timezone. Lemonpost's analytics shows your best posting times per channel, so you schedule into real windows instead of guessing from generic charts.
Scheduling doesn't cost you reach
Posts published through the official Threads API behave exactly like posts you send by hand. What moves reach on Threads is starting conversations people want to join and posting often enough to stay visible. A scheduler helps with the frequency and frees up the time to do the talking.
Threads sizes and specs, at a glance
What Threads accepts for posts and media. Worth bookmarking.
| Format | Recommended size | Aspect ratio | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Post length | Up to 500 characters | — | Roomier than X. Lemonpost counts as you type so nothing gets clipped. |
| Image (portrait) | 1080 × 1350 px | 4:5 | Takes up the most feed space on mobile. Up to 10 images per post. |
| Image (square) | 1080 × 1080 px | 1:1 | Clean and safe. Also up to 10 per post. |
| Video | 1080 × 1920 px | 9:16 | Full-screen vertical plays best. One video per post. |
| Chain part | 500 chars, 10 images each | — | Every part follows the same limits. Lemonpost posts them in order. |
| Link | One per post | — | Threads shows a preview card for the first link in a post. |
- File types: JPG or PNG for images, MP4 or MOV for video.
- The 500-character limit is generous, but the first line still does the heavy lifting in a fast feed.
- Threads is part of Meta, so cross-posting alongside Instagram is a natural fit in Lemonpost.
Post to every platform, not just Threads
Lemonpost publishes to Threads, X, Bluesky, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest and YouTube. Write your post once, customize it per platform, and fill nine calendars in the time one used to take.

Threads scheduling, answered
Connect your Threads account, write your post or chain in Lemonpost, and pick a date and time. Lemonpost publishes it automatically through the official Threads API. You can schedule days, weeks, or months ahead, as far out as you like to plan.
Yes. Write the entire chain in Lemonpost and schedule it as one. Lemonpost posts the first part, then adds each reply in order, the way chains are built on Threads.
Up to 10 images in a single post, or one video. Each part of a chain follows the same limit, so you can put images throughout a chain.
It is when the tool publishes through the official Threads API, which Lemonpost does. You connect through Threads' own login, we never ask for your password, and scheduled posts follow the same rules as posts made by hand.
No. Posts published through the official API are treated exactly like posts sent by hand. What moves reach on Threads is starting good conversations and posting often, which is exactly what a scheduler makes easier.
500 characters per post, which is roomier than X. Lemonpost counts as you type and flags anything over the limit before you schedule, so nothing gets clipped.
Whenever your followers are online, which is different for every account. Lemonpost's analytics shows your best posting times per channel based on your own followers, so you can schedule into those windows instead of guessing from generic charts.
Yes. Compose once in Lemon Studio, then send the post or chain to Threads, X and Bluesky in one go. Lemonpost checks each platform's character limit, since they differ, so nothing fails on publish.
Yes. Both are Meta platforms, and Lemonpost connects them side by side. Compose once and send the same idea to Instagram and Threads, adjusting each to fit.
Yes. Every plan covers multiple connected accounts: 5 on Creator, 15 on Growth, and 40 on Pro, across all platforms. Workspaces keep brands or clients separate, and every plan has unlimited seats.
Yes. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial and you can cancel anytime. Plans start at $29 a month, and you pay for connected channels, nothing else. Seats are unlimited on every plan.
Yes. Lemonpost runs in your browser and installs on your phone like a regular app. And since publishing happens on our servers, your phone doesn't need to be on when the post goes out.
It stays in your queue marked as failed, with the reason from Threads, so you can fix it and try again. If you cross-post to several platforms and one fails, the others still go out. Only the failed one waits for you.
