Instagram Stories are simple to create, but if you
want to make them truly engaging, you'll need to put some effort into it.
Thankfully, Instagram provides a variety of features to assist you in making
your stories as entertaining as possible.
Maybe you've got some amazing photos or videos, as
well as some cool filters and stickers to spice it up, but your story is still
missing one crucial element: music. Instagram adds new songs to their music
library on a daily basis. People have been using this feature since Instagram
offered the ability to add music to your stories, and now even reels. Instagram
plays music from its own collection as well as from your favourite music
streaming services such as Spotify, SoundCloud, and Shazam.
You've come to the right place if you want to put
music in your Instagram Stories because we'll show you how to do it step by
step. So, to know more, keep reading.
Step 1: On your Android or iOS device, open the
Instagram app.
Step 2: Swipe left to access the Stories section.
Step 3: Take a picture or record a video, or choose
existing media from your phone's gallery.
Step 4: When you've decided what you want to post,
press the Sticker icon in the top right corner.
Step 5: You'll discover a variety of stickers there,
including GIFs, location tags, and more. One of them is the Music sticker,
which allows you to include music in your Instagram Stories. Choose the music sticker.
Step 6: After you've chosen the sticker, there are
two sections: 'For You' for popular music and 'Browse' for new songs.
Step 7: Once you've selected the music which you
want to add, it's time to make some changes.
Step 8: You have the option of displaying the music
with lyrics (in four different font types) or using one of two music players.
By picking the song bit, you can also select the specific part of the music
which you want to add. Your Instagram Story can have up to 15 seconds of music.
Step 9: Once you've made all of your decisions,
simply hit the 'Done' option in the top right corner, select the 'Send To'
option, and voila! Your story has been posted. You can also share it with
friends one at a time.
If you wish to add music to Instagram Stories
without the sticker, reduce its size when making the adjustments and then drag
it to the top of the screen till it disappears. This hides the sticker while
also playing music in the background.
