ShareSparrow just got a major upgrade.
You can still turn tweets and Bluesky posts into Instagram-ready graphics. But now you can do the same with news articles.
Drop in any article link. Get a graphic with the headline, description, and photo — ready to share.
No more posting bare links that the algorithm buries. Give people something to look at.
