As an Instagram user, you can take advantage of the Stories feature. It allows you to share short disappearing photos and videos with gifs, emojis, and even music added in.
Adding music to your Instagram Story is a simple process once you know where to look. You can even add music directly from other apps like Spotify, SoundCloud, and Shazam. To make the process seamless, you should have the latest version of the picture-sharing app.
Here is how to add music to your Instagram Stories and make them more exciting and engaging:
1. Open the Instagram app on your iOS or Android device.
2. Swipe left from your feed’s home screen to open the Stories feature. Alternatively, tap the plus “+” sign on your profile picture in the top-left corner to create a new Story.
3. Take or select the photo or video you want to post to your Instagram Story.
4. In the menu bar along the top of your screen, tap the square smiley face icon
5. In the pop-up, tap the “Music” option. Then, in the search box that appears, type in a song or scroll through the listed options.
6. Tap on the song you want to include when it appears on the list.
7. Drag the small bar at the bottom of the screen to the segment of the song you want on your Story.
8. Hit “Done” when finished. You can then drag the song icon to a different location, or pinch the icon outward or inward with your fingers to make it larger or smaller. Then post your Story as you normally would.
Do not forget that you can also use Instagram Stories with added music to up your business marketing and also stand out from your competitors.
Sooner rather than later, you will see improvements in your engagement.
