How To Share Your Stories On Facebook
When you share your Instagram stories to Facebook, either directly from Instagram or through Storrito, it’s important to note that only question stickers will remain interactive on Facebook. Other stickers, like link stickers, will appear as images and will not be clickable for Facebook viewers. This limitation is something to keep in mind when planning stories that you want to share across both platforms.
Connecting your Facebook page to your Instagram profile allows you to share stories, posts, and updates seamlessly between the two platforms. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide on how to link them:
Open your Instagram app on your mobile device and tap on the menu icon in the top right corner of your profile.
In the menu, select Settings .
In the settings menu, find and select Accounts . In this sub-menu, tap on Linked Accounts . This section allows you to link various social media accounts to your Instagram profile.
Select Facebook from the list of options, and a login screen will appear. Enter your Facebook login details to connect your account.
Once logged in, select the Facebook page you’d like to link if you manage multiple pages. This way, you can ensure your Instagram posts and Stories will share to the correct page on Facebook.
Consider Cross-Platform Limitations : Remember that most interactive stickers won’t function on Facebook. If you’re adding link stickers, polls, or quizzes for engagement, they’ll work on Instagram but appear as static images on Facebook.
Use Question Stickers for Engagement : Since question stickers remain interactive on Facebook, consider using them if you want viewers on both platforms to engage with your story.
Preview Stories Before Sharing : It’s a good idea to preview your story before sharing to see how it looks on Instagram. Think about how the same story will appear on Facebook, especially if it includes interactive elements that may not be clickable.
