Once, it was easy to share your Instagram images using Twitter. However these days, sharing your Instagram images straight to Twitter just tweets out a dull old link, not that fav-worthy picture you just took.

No worries-- there's a simple repair.

To do so, you can produce a dish-- IFTTT's name for its triggers-- for publishing a photo to Twitter every time you take a picture with Instagram.

First, browse through IFTTT's web site and create an account. After that, visit this link and also turn on the dish. You'll then be asked to trigger your Twitter as well as Instagram accounts, which you must go ahead and also do. After that, the service will basically connect those 2 accounts, sending a tweet whenever you publish a brand-new picture to Instagram.
