If you are an independent creator who has a presence on various social media sites, you might have to post content on all the platforms to keep your followers happy.

Since independent creators have to do all their things independently, it isn’t easy to be active on all the platforms and post content everywhere.

And if you post content on Twitter in the form of tweets, this new feature under testing from December will let users share on Instagram stories.

How to Share Tweets on Instagram stories

Step 1:Make sure you have the Instagram app installed on your device. Log into your account.
Step 2: Open up Twitter for iOS app. Tap the share icon  on a public Tweet.

Note: A protected Tweet cannot be shared.

Step 3: Tap the Instagram icon. 
Step 4: Your Twitter for iOS app will close, and a new Story draft on your Instagram app will open. 
Step 5:The Tweet you want to share will appear as a moveable and resizable sticker to share on Instagram Stories. 
Step 6: You can share the Tweet with a single person, a group, or all of your followers.
You have several customized options, such as using your photos for the predefined design offered by Instagram stories.

Before having this function, users had to take a screenshot of their tweets, crop it accordingly and then repost it on Instagram stories if they wanted to.

This new option will save some time for the independent creators. And it looks much better than sharing the cropped Screenshots.

However, the Tweets shared on Instagram stories are not clickable, which means users won’t be able to drive traffic back to their tweets. But it is still better than taking a screenshot and requesting out Instagram stories.

Want More Social Media Automation?

You can check out services like Postcron. It is an excellent social media posts scheduler. You can schedule posts for Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Pinterest.

You can set aside a block of time which you can use to schedule post for the entire week, even the entire month also if you want to go too aggressive. This definitely helps save time, that can be used elsewhere.
