Bluesky: Creating an app password

Last updated: 25/02/2024

Bluesky allows you to create app-specific passwords, so you can safely sign into Threaditor without giving away your actual account password.

1. Go to the App Password section of your Bluesky settings

2. Select "Add App Password", and give your app password a name. We recommend "Threaditor", or something similar.

3. Select "Create App Password", then copy the password it generates. You'll be unable to view this password again, so ensure you have copied it before continuing.

4. Within Threaditor, select Settings > Accounts, then select "Link an account".

5. Select "Bluesky", then fill out your account information. Place your app password into the "App password" field, then select "Connect".

You account should now be securely connected to Bluesky!
