How to Connect Your Twitter to Instagram


Creating the Connection

Opening your profile in the Instagram application, picking the gear symbol and choosing "Share Settings" provides a checklist of accounts with which you could share. Tapping "Twitter" and after that verifying your selection allows you to share with Twitter. Even if you have actually formerly done this, the option to toggle the link on or off might not constantly appear in the Settings app. You can solve that problem by touching "Twitter" from the Instagram application's Share Settings, selecting "Unlink" then reconnecting the accounts. Once linked, pick "Twitter" from iPhone's Settings app to discover the slider that toggles the link.


Even more suggestions ...

Once upon a time, it was simple to share your Instagram images by means of Twitter. Yet nowadays, sharing your Instagram photos directly to Twitter just tweets out a monotonous old web link, not that fav-worthy picture you just took.

No worries-- there's an easy fix.

IFTTT, short for "If This Then That" is a program that allows you create "triggers" for your different applications. IFTTT has lots of wonderful applications, however one of them is sharing Instagram pictures natively on Twitter once more.

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

Initially, see IFTTT's web site and develop an account. After that, visit this link as well as activate the dish. You'll after that be asked to activate your Twitter and Instagram accounts, which you must go ahead as well as do. After that, the solution will basically link those two accounts, sending out a tweet each time you upload a new image to Instagram.

A few caveats: This arrangement can be a little sluggish, so fret not if your images don't show up on Twitter immediately after you post them on Instagram. And also if you want to temporarily shut off the auto-posting, download IFTTT's mobile application, which allows you transform recipes on and off on a whim.
