The explosive interest in Threads was evident not only in the app category rankings but also across the overall charts including games. According to data.ai, on the day of its release, Threads ranked first in the combined app and game store rankings of the Apple App Store for iPhone in 9 countries (United States, Bahrain, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Kuwait, Panama, Paraguay, Peru). The next day, South Korea also joined this group, reflecting the curiosity of domestic social networking service (SNS) users toward the new app.
Threads is a platform for communication through short texts within 500 characters, emerging as a rival to Twitter, which has a similar format. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, announced that the number of subscribers exceeded 30 million just 16 hours after the app's launch.
