Restrictions in Russia

Access is restrictedsince July 2023

No official decision has been issued specifically for this service, and regulator representatives stated they had no plans to restrict it separately. However, due to shared infrastructure with the Meta ecosystem, which has been restricted in Russia since 2022, the app has not opened for Russian users without extra tools since its launch in July 2023.

Frequently asked questions

Is Threads working right now?

Access restricted in Russia. Since its launch in July 2023, the app does not open for users in Russia due to shared infrastructure with Instagram and Facebook. From Europe, Threads opens fine — the service itself is working. Checked at 06:00 MSK, updated every 5 minutes.

Why is Threads down for me, but working for others?

Most often, it depends on the network: accessibility varies by provider and region. Check Threads from your device, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or restart the app. Check the "Who is having issues" section to see affected providers.

How can I check if Threads opens on my device?

Tap "Check" in the "Check on your device" section. Your browser will query Threads addresses directly and display the response status and time. The check takes up to 8 seconds and installs nothing.

Why doesn't Threads open for everyone?

Since its launch in July 2023, the app does not open for users in Russia due to shared infrastructure with Instagram and Facebook. Restrictions apply unevenly: the service does not open at all on some providers, while on others it loads slowly or partially. That's why it might work for friends but not for you.
