Here’s how it works:
1.1. Get started by logging into your ScreenCloud account here and choosing the ScreenCloud App Store from the left-hand menu.
1.2. By searching “Follow Us” you can find the Follow Us app and choose the “Install app” button to add a new instance.
2.1. Next, you will see a list of social media accounts that you can add to your Follow Us app. This includes Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Vimeo as well as a list of contact details such as your website, email, and phone number.
2.2. Copy and paste the name of any social media profiles you’d like to show, along with any contact details you’d like to add-in. For example, if your Facebook URL is https://www.facebook.com/ScreenCloudio/ you can copy and paste “ScreenCloudio” into the Facebook line.
