A new app called Yup is aiming to be your one-stop shop for all things social media. The app allows users to cross-post content across various platforms, including X, Bluesky, Lens, and Threads.
Yup also integrates some of the features that users are familiar with from other social media platforms, such as the ability to like and comment on posts, as well as to repost them. The app also has a “For You” feed that shows users content that they might be interested in, and a “Following” feed that shows posts from people that users follow.
One of the most interesting features of Yup is its support for Threads. Threads is a decentralized social media platform that doesn’t currently have a public API that developers can use to connect their apps to it.
However, Yup has “informally used the internal API” that Thread’s web client does. When an official Threads API is released, Yup says that it will switch to using that instead.
The developers of Yup believe that their app will make it easier for both regular users and creators to cross-post content to both mainstream platforms like X, as well as to decentralized protocols like Mastodon. Existing tools like Fedica allow some cross-platform posting, but Yup casts a wider net by also supporting Threads.
The platform also aggregates notifications from connected platforms, presenting them in a unified feed. The app is still in its early stages of development, but it has the potential to be a valuable tool for social media users who are tired of juggling multiple apps.
Yup is currently available on iOS and Android, but there is a waiting list that users have to go through before fully accessing the app.
