3 Tap ☰. This three-line menu icon is in the top right corner of your screen.[2] -
4 Tap Settings. It's next to a gear icon at the top of the menu. -
5 Tap Accounts Center. You'll see this at the bottom of the menu under the "Meta" header.[3] -
6 Tap Set up Accounts Center. This is usually the first option on the page. If you see a profile shown, you might already have your Instagram and Facebook accounts linked.[4] - If you're not sure if your accounts are already linked, you can tap Accounts & profiles to see if both Facebook and Instagram are listed under the same account name.
