This wikiHow teaches you how to connect your Facebook account to your Twitter account in order to post your tweets to Facebook. You'll do this from within Twitter's settings, though it's also possible to use Facebook's settings. To connect your Twitter account to Facebook, you have to use the Twitter website on a computer.

Steps

1
Open Twitter. Go to https://www.twitter.com/. Twitter will open to your home page if you're already logged in.
- If you aren't already logged in, enter your email address (or Twitter username) and password to continue.
2
Click your profile icon. It's in the top-right side of the Twitter page, just left of the Tweet button. A drop-down menu will appear.

Question

I can't find "Connect to Facebook" button in my apps page on Twitter. Where is it?

Community Answer

A recent update to the Facebook Platform Policies ended the ability to automatically post Tweets to your Facebook profile or page.
Question

How do I get the link to my Facebook profile?

Community Answer

Click on your profile name and wait for it to load. Once the page has loaded, you can copy the link that's on the browser address bar.
Question

Why doesn't the "connect to Facebook" option appear on my page?

Community Answer

Try a different browser. It's usually a Google Chrome issue for me, so when I need to connect, I switch to MS Edge. I think it also works with Firefox.

Warnings

Linking Twitter to Facebook can lead to your tweets inundating the News Feed, which may irritate some people.
