Description of intouch

Thanks to an application programming interface (APIs) the posts you make on Instagram will be automatically reposted on your Pinterest account without need from the user to do anything.
To do that we will be using Zapier which is a web service that helps you automate actions between different apps or web sites. According to the creators of Zapier: "Zapier makes it easy to connect the web apps you use and makes it easy for you to automate tedious tasks. You can wait until third-party app developers are able to provide you with the SaaS integrations you need. You can hire freelance programmers to develop custom software. Or you can do it yourself using Zapier, then get back to the tasks that matter most to your business."

The process of Intouch is very easy, you simply should post whatever you want on Instagram and thanks to Zapier the exact same content will be post on your Pinterest account. You do not want to see all the content you post on Instagram posted on your Pinterest account ? No worries! You simply need to filter your action with an hastag for instance or a specific word such as "#pinterest" and only content which contains "#pinterest" on its legend will be uploaded on you pinterest account. Intouch is perfect for content creators, instagram lovers or pinterest addicts! It will simplify your work and be a time saver for you. You will no longer forgot to keep your pinterest account updated which will satisfy your followers and give you even more visibility by being active on every social media.
