Like a wise person once said, “the internet is made up of like six websites and all are full of screenshots from the other five.” Driving that point home, you can now share tweets directly to your Instagram Stories.

Essentially, it works exactly as you’d expect. If you see something you want to share with your Instagram audience, you’ll be able to place a tweet as a sticker within Instagram Stories.
Previously, the only way to do this was to take a screenshot, but who has the energy for all of that? If you want to use the new feature, we’ll show you how.
