Connect Instagram and Twitter

Connect Instagram and Twitter: Attaching your Instagram account with Twitter allows you to share your Instagram images directly through your Twitter account. Regrettably, this choice is only offered for your iOS 7 tool, so if you're using Android, you're out of luck. You could by hand cut or reconnect the accounts via your Setups application, however this convenient control only appears after you initially link both accounts via the Instagram application.


Connect Instagram and Twitter


Creating the Link

Opening your profile in the Instagram application, choosing the gear icon and choosing "Share Settings" presents a list of accounts with which you can share. Tapping "Twitter" then verifying your choice allows you to show Twitter. Even if you've formerly done this, the alternative to toggle the link on or off may not always show up in the Settings app. You can deal with that issue by tapping "Twitter" from the Instagram application's Share Settings, choosing "Unlink" and then reconnecting the accounts. As soon as linked, choose "Twitter" from apple iphone's Settings app to discover the slider that toggles the connection.


Even more tips ...

Once, it was simple to share your Instagram photos using Twitter. However nowadays, sharing your Instagram pictures straight to Twitter simply tweets out an uninteresting old web link, not that fav-worthy picture you simply took.

No fears-- there's an easy fix.

IFTTT, short for "If This Then That" is a program that allows you develop "triggers" for your numerous applications. IFTTT has lots of great applications, yet among them is sharing Instagram photos natively on Twitter once again.

To do so, you can create a recipe-- IFTTT's name for its triggers-- for posting a picture to Twitter each time you take an image with Instagram.

First, see IFTTT's site and create an account. Then, visit this link and also turn on the dish. You'll after that be asked to activate your Twitter and Instagram accounts, which you should go on and also do. Then, the service will basically link those 2 accounts, sending out a tweet every time you publish a new photo to Instagram.

A few caveats: This arrangement can be a little slow-moving, so worry not if your photos don't turn up on Twitter immediately after you post them on Instagram. And if you wish to momentarily switch off the auto-posting, download IFTTT's mobile application, which allows you transform recipes on and off on a whim.
