How To Add Music to Instagram Stories

Ready to add music to your Instagram Stories? Here’s how: 

Step #1: Capture or Import Your Instagram Story

Open the Instagram Stories Camera and take a photo or video — or upload directly from your camera roll by tapping the square preview in the bottom left corner:

Step #2: Select a Song

Tap the sticker icon at the top of the screen and choose the music sticker.

This will open the Instagram music library where you’ll find thousands of songs to choose from:

Scroll through a “For You” tab of suggested songs, browse by category, or search for a specific song:

Instagram’s music library is filled with popular songs and artists like Beyoncé, Guns N’ Roses, and Shawn Mendes — all thanks to Facebook’s partnership with record labels.

Step #3: Choose the Perfect Snippet

When you’re happy with your song choice, you can fast-forward and rewind through the track to choose the exact part that fits your Story.

You can also choose how long you want the music clip to play for (the maximum is 15 seconds):

Step #4: Choose Your Desired Format

Now it’s time to format your chosen track. 

You have the option to display lyrics in a variety of fonts, pop in a cover, or tap the “x” for music only. 

Tap “Done” to seal the deal:

Step #5: Share Your Story 

Now you’re ready to post to Instagram Stories. As usual, you can add GIFs, polls, or even hashtags.

Tap the “Your Story” button at the bottom of your screen and you’re all set.

How To Add Music to an Instagram Post

Here’s how to get in on all the action: 

Step #1: Start a New Post

Head to your profile, tap the ”+” sign at the bottom of your screen, and select a photo from your camera roll or snap a photo directly.

From here, edit your image, add a caption, tags, hashtags, and location — similar to how you usually would:
