Tapping "Twitter" and afterwards verifying your option enables you to show to Twitter.

When attached, pick "Twitter" from iPhone's Settings application to discover the slider that toggles the connection.


Even more pointers ...

Once upon a time, it was very easy to share your Instagram photos using Twitter. But these days, sharing your Instagram photos straight to Twitter simply tweets out a monotonous old link, not that fav-worthy photo you simply took.

No concerns-- there's a very easy fix.

IFTTT, short for "If This Then That" is a program that lets you develop "triggers" for your different apps. IFTTT has great deals of fantastic applications, but one of them is sharing Instagram photos natively on Twitter once more.

To do so, you could create a dish-- IFTTT's name for its triggers-- for publishing an image to Twitter every single time you take a photo with Instagram.

Initially, check out IFTTT's site and also produce an account. After that, visit this link and also trigger the dish. You'll then be asked to trigger your Twitter as well as Instagram accounts, which you ought to go on and also do. Then, the solution will essentially connect those two accounts, sending out a tweet each time you upload a new image to Instagram.

A couple of caveats: This setup can be a little slow-moving, so fret not if your pictures don't turn up on Twitter promptly after you publish them on Instagram. As well as if you want to briefly switch off the auto-posting, download IFTTT's mobile application, which lets you transform recipes on and off on a whim.
