Getting Twitter Content Into FlipBoard – The EASY Way!

October 2014

Starts With A Question…

Answer a question a few times and I know it is time to write it down…Q: ”So I see a tweet of an article, and read the article in Twitter. How do I put it in FlipBoard directly? I have been going out on the internet and finding the article again to Flip.”A: FlipBoard makes this very easy, once you understand the step sequence. You can COPY content (text, links, photos, etc.) and go directly into FlipBoard and paste it into a personal magazine.

Background:Two frequently “Flipped” items from Twitter are a tweet that contains only text (a quote, for instance) and tweets that contain web links (a link to separate content -article, images, etc.). We will review both examples here.

Flipping a Text Tweet

1. Identify tweet (a quote here)



2. Press and hold Tweet until the shortcut menu appears; select “Copy link to Tweet”



3. Once link is in memory, double-click iPhone Home button to access multi-tasking mode and select the FlipBoard app


Flipping a Text Tweet4. Once Flipboard

opens up, a menu will briefly appear (“You copied a link. Tap here to save it into a magazine”. TAP this menu (QUICKLY, IT DISAPPEARS SHORTLY) and choose a magazine.


Flipping a Text Tweet5. Select your desired FlipBoard magazine and

then tap “Add”


Flipping a Text Tweet6. A notification will appear letting you know the “Flip” was

successful. Then open the Magazine and you will see the item posted in the magazine (shortly, if not immediately…)


Flipping a Tweet with a Website Link

1. Identify tweet (interested in weblink here)



2. Press and hold THE LINK within the tweet until a shortcut menu appears; select “Copy link” (NOTE -you can copy entire tweet, same as described above and the link will go with it).



3 - 6. These steps are exactly the same as described earlier. Here is the “flipped” article as seen in the magazine.

That’s it! Good luck Flipping.
