So you found an inspirational quote 💬 on Twitter and you think of sharing it with your Instagram audience.  Awesome!  🙌  But there's a problem:  Instagram doesn't allow you to automatically share posts from Twitter. 

At this point, you may be asking 🤔 "Why not share a screenshot of the quote?" Instagram is an image-based 📸 platform and Twitter is a text-based 💬 platform. So the two don't match visually. Simply sharing a screenshot of a Twitter quote on Instagram is going to ruin your Ins[tagram aesthetic, a](/blog/5-tips-for-creating-the-perfect-instagram-aesthetic)nd you don't want that! 😉

Instead, I have found **two methods** for creating & sharing inspirational quotes on your Instagram feed! So, let’s dig into these methods. 

## How to share an inspirational quote to your Instagram

### Method #1: Share an inspirational quote to your Instagram with Canva Templates 🎨

**Here's how to create an inspirational quote in Canva:** 

**1.** Go to [Canva.com](https://canva.com) and type "Instagram post" into the search bar

### Method #2: Share a Twitter quote to your Instagram using the Remix app 📲 (by Buffer)

You can use [the Remix app](https://buffer.com/remix) to convert any Tweet into a simple Instagram graphic quote. This method is very fast ⏩ and easy - but take note that you are restricted in terms of the output design. 

Here's how to convert a Tweet to a branded Instagram quote using Remix:

**1.** Open Twitter and select a post
