How To Link Twitter To Instagram
Creating the Connection
Opening your profile in the Instagram app, choosing the gear symbol as well as selecting "Share Settings" presents a list of accounts with which you can share. Touching "Twitter" then validating your option enables you to show Twitter. Even if you have actually formerly done this, the alternative to toggle the link on or off might not always show up in the Settings app. You can solve that problem by touching "Twitter" from the Instagram app's Share Settings, choosing "Unlink" and then reconnecting the accounts. Once attached, choose "Twitter" from iPhone's Settings application to locate the slider that toggles the connection.
Even more pointers ...
Once upon a time, it was easy to share your Instagram images via Twitter. However these days, sharing your Instagram photos straight to Twitter just tweets out a monotonous old web link, not that fav-worthy picture you just took.
No concerns-- there's an easy solution.
IFTTT, short for "If This Then That" is a program that lets you create "triggers" for your numerous applications. IFTTT has lots of fantastic applications, but one of them is sharing Instagram pictures natively on Twitter again.
To do so, you can create a recipe-- IFTTT's name for its triggers-- for uploading a picture to Twitter each time you take a picture with Instagram.
First, visit IFTTT's web site and produce an account. After that, visit this link and also activate the recipe. You'll after that be asked to trigger your Twitter as well as Instagram accounts, which you should proceed and also do. After that, the solution will basically link those two accounts, sending out a tweet each time you upload a new picture to Instagram.
A couple of cautions: This setup can be a little slow, so worry not if your images don't appear on Twitter right away after you upload them on Instagram. And if you want to temporarily turn off the auto-posting, download IFTTT's mobile app, which allows you turn recipes on and off on a whim.
