Over the years, people have struggled to share their favorite tweets on their Instagram stories. Most users have been taking screenshots of each and every tweet they intend to share and Oh boy! It has been such a tedious task. Users have repeatedly poked Twitter about the issue and finally, Twitter listened to them, at least to those with iPhones. Twitter now supports a tweet to be shared directly on Instagram.

- After that a menu appears, with a bunch of sharing options, tap on “Instagram Stories.”
- Instagram app automatically opens and a new draft for the tweet will be created on Instagram Story.
- You can customize the tweet based upon your requirement move it around by tapping and dragging the tweet, or you can even resize it by swiping your fingers together or apart.
- Lastly, choose the audience you want to share it with all of your Instagram followers, a single person, or a group of multiple Instagram users and click on the share button.
