Connect Instagram to Twitter (update)

Connect Instagram to Twitter: Attaching your Instagram account with Twitter enables you to share your Instagram images straight with your Twitter account. Sadly, this choice is just readily available for your iOS 7 tool, so if you're making use of Android, you're out of luck. You can by hand cut or reconnect the accounts through your Settings application, however this practical control just appears after you first attach the two accounts through the Instagram application.


Connect Instagram to Twitter


Creating the Link

Opening your profile in the Instagram app, selecting the gear icon and selecting "Share Settings" offers a checklist of accounts with which you can share. Tapping "Twitter" and after that validating your selection enables you to show Twitter. Even if you've formerly done this, the choice to toggle the connection on or off may not constantly appear in the Settings application. You can fix that concern by touching "Twitter" from the Instagram app's Share Settings, choosing "Unlink" and then reconnecting the accounts. Once linked, pick "Twitter" from iPhone's Settings app to find the slider that toggles the connection.


Even more suggestions ...

Once, it was simple to share your Instagram photos through Twitter. But these days, sharing your Instagram images straight to Twitter simply tweets out an uninteresting old web link, not that fav-worthy snapshot you just took.

No fears-- there's a very easy repair.

IFTTT, short for "If This Then That" is a program that allows you develop "triggers" for your various apps. IFTTT has lots of fantastic applications, but one of them is sharing Instagram photos natively on Twitter once again.

To do so, you could create a dish-- IFTTT's name for its triggers-- for posting a picture to Twitter whenever you take a photo with Instagram.

Initially, browse through IFTTT's web site as well as create an account. After that, visit this link as well as turn on the dish. You'll then be asked to activate your Twitter and Instagram accounts, which you must go ahead and also do. After that, the solution will basically connect those two accounts, sending a tweet every time you upload a new photo to Instagram.

A couple of caveats: This arrangement can be a little sluggish, so stress not if your images don't show up on Twitter quickly after you upload them on Instagram. As well as if you intend to temporarily switch off the auto-posting, download IFTTT's mobile application, which lets you turn recipes on and off on a whim.
