It\u2019s a little thing, but one worth savoring.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re tired of your Instagram feed mostly being a chaotic mashup of screencapped tweets and reshared TikToks, well, those things probably aren\u2019t going away but one is about to look a lot better.<\/p>\n
Twitter just added the capability to share a tweet directly to Instagram Stories, letting you port over your clever cross-platform moments properly. You can\u2019t tap the tweets to hop back to Twitter, but they look nice now. Unfortunately for Android users, it\u2019s iOS-only for now.<\/p>\n
\nSkip the screenshots \u2013\u2013 sharing Tweets to Instagram Stories right from the share menu is now rolling out to everyone on iOS!<\/p>\n
Tap the share icon on a Tweet and select \u201cInstagram Stories\u201d. Once your Instagram app opens, you can resize\/reposition the Tweet sticker before posting. https:\/\/t.co\/R1qayqMwYl<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/yp82IH5Tuk<\/a><\/p>\n

The new cross-platform feature is just a tiny sample of Twitter\u2019s refreshing recent flurry of product activity \u2014 a result of mounting pressure from investors who accused the company of stagnating and planned to oust its CEO, Jack Dorsey<\/a>. The company also just added two more major features to empower users to monetize their tweets: paid subscriptions known as \u201cSuper Follows\u201d and ticketed events<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Twitter users have long waited for a laundry list of small quality-of-life tweaks to manifest, a phenomenon that often materializes as an entire cohort of journalists complaining about how you still can\u2019t edit tweets. But if it can keep the pace, Twitter might finally be ready to deliver.<\/p>\n
See, doesn\u2019t that look nice?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
