   • If you want to remove the account or unlink it from Instagram, you can tap Remove from Accounts Center on this page.[1]
   • To cross-post to Instagram from Facebook or visa versa go to Accounts Center, then tap the account that you want to share from. You'll then be able to see what content is shared to your other accounts.
