How to use Threads' keyword search feature?

To try out this new feature, follow the below steps:

Step 1: Open the Threads app.

Step 2: Tap on the search button which is present at the bottom.

Step 3: Now, type the particular word or sentence that you want to search for, in the search field provided on the top. 

Step 4: Once done, tap the search option, and then you will see all posts containing the searched text.

Since Threads was launched on July 5, the keyword search was among the most requested features by the users. Despite its user drop, the company has been continuously introducing new features in order to gain back users. Last month, Meta Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced the feature to directly share a Threads post to Instagram DMs and the ability to add custom alt-text for photo/video. He also introduced a new mention button to easily mention someone's account.
