Why Add Music to Your Instagram Stories & Posts?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Adding music to your stories and posts is a great way to level up your Instagram content, while also engaging your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

It doesn’t matter if you want to spice up a photo, share underrated tracks, or enhance your meme content, adding music to your posts is always a win.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And the best part? It\u2019s super easy to do.<\/span><\/p>\n

How To Add Music to Instagram Stories<\/b><\/h2>\n

Ready to add music and spice up your Instagram Stories? Here\u2019s how: <\/span><\/p>\n

1: Take a picture or import your Instagram story<\/b><\/h3>\n

Open the Instagram stories camera and take a photo or video \u2014 or upload directly from your camera roll by tapping the square preview in the bottom left corner:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2: Select a song<\/b><\/h3>\n

Tap the sticker icon at the top of the screen and choose the music sticker.<\/span><\/p>\n

This will open the Instagram music library where you\u2019ll find thousands of songs to choose from:<\/span><\/p>\n

Scroll through a \u201cFor You\u201d tab of suggested songs, browse by category, or search for a specific song, or check your \u201cSaved\u201d sounds to use it later on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Instagram\u2019s music library is filled with popular songs and artists like Drake,Tate McRae and Shawn Mendes. But if you have a business profile you will probably have to use non copyrighted music and these hits will not appear in your \u201cFor You\u201d list.<\/span><\/p>\n

3: Choose the perfect lyrics<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Once you\u2019re happy with your song choice, you can fast-forward and rewind through the track to choose the exact part that fits your story and your favorite lyrics.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also choose how long you want the music clip to play for (the maximum is 15 seconds) just in case you don’t want to post a 15 seconds photo.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4: Choose your desired format<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Now it\u2019s time to format your chosen track. You have multiple options to display lyrics in a variety of fonts, pop in a cover, or tap the \u201cx\u201d for music only.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you are done designing your perfect canvas tap \u201cdone\u201d to seal the deal.<\/span><\/p>\n

5: Share Your Story<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Now you\u2019re ready to post your Instagram stories. As usual, you can add GIFs, polls, or even hashtags.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you are sure you like what you see, tap the \u201cyour story\u201d button at the bottom of your screen and you\u2019re all set.<\/span><\/p>\n
