How to Add Your Instagram Profile Link to Your Twitter Bio
The process of adding your Instagram profile link to your Twitter bio is fairly simple.
It consists of three basic steps.

The second is to head to Twitter to edit your bio.
And third is to paste the link you copied.
Even though you can add your profile link easily, the exact steps are confusing to many, because of all the new features and the advanced interface updates.
Getting the link from Instagram can be a task in itself, as not many users are aware of how they can obtain it.
There is a need to navigate deeper into the app to get your profile link.
Once you can copy the link, you can share it with whomever you want and how many ever times you please.
Besides the profile link, the most common way to get to someone's profile or get someone else to ours is by sharing the account username.
By sharing your username, the other person can easily type it out on the search bar and give you a follow.

All accounts on Instagram have unique URLs, and an account username registered on Instagram is at the back of it.
