Threads app introduces live sports scores, starting with NBA games

This move aims to enhance the sports discussion experience within the app and provide users with real-time updates on their favorite teams.

According to Meta, the addition of sports scores aligns with the growing interest in sports discussions on the platform, particularly NBA-related content. The feature allows users to access scores through Threads Search, whether it's before, during, or after a game.

Users can also engage with others who share their passion for a specific team by tapping on the team's logo, which redirects them to relevant conversations.

In addition to the sports scores update, Threads recently provided a sneak peek into its integration with the fediverse, a network of interconnected social media platforms. While still in beta testing and available to a limited number of users, this feature promises to further enrich the Threads experience for its users.
