With these tips, you can easily add a song to your video, whether it&#8217;s from a music streaming service, a reel, or even from the app&#8217;s sound collection. Follow these steps to add music to your Instagram stories and make your videos look more attractive. After you have successfully added music to your Instagram videos, you&#8217;ll have to upload the videos to your account.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Songs_you_can_add_to_your_Instagram_story\"><\/span>Songs you can add to your Instagram story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are a music lover and want to add a new track to your Instagram story, you have come to the right place. You can add music to your Instagram story through the stickers that you can find in the in-app library. Tap the search bar and type in a song name. Once you have a list of songs that you like, select them. In the stickers, you can change the cover art, song title, and font, too.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve done that, you&#8217;ll need to install the latest version of Instagram on your device. Once you&#8217;re done, you can add music to your story! You can also use an external music service like Spotify to add music. First, download the SoundCloud app. Once installed, open the app. From there, select the song you want to add to your Instagram story. Once you&#8217;ve finished, tap the share icon and then choose the option to &#8220;Add to Story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_from_a_music_streaming_service\"><\/span>Adding a song from a music streaming service<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding a song from a music-streaming service to your Instagram story can be a breeze. The app offers several ways to add music to your story, each lasting five to fifteen seconds. You can also browse through song lists by genre or search for a specific track. Then, simply tap the image of the song to add it to your Instagram story. Once the video is complete, you can click the &#8220;share&#8221; button at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to photos and videos, you can also add music to your story with Instagram stickers. You can find thousands of songs by searching in the app&#8217;s music library. You can choose a song based on the artist, genre, or search for the song title. Adding music to your Instagram story requires that you have an Instagram account and an account with a music streaming service.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_from_a_reel\"><\/span>Adding a song from a reel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Reel feature in Instagram makes it easy to add original music to your Stories. When you tap the + sign in the top right corner of the home page, you will see a box with a slider and a music track icon. Click this box and adjust the part of the song you want to play. If you are looking to add an original song to your Instagram Story, you can adjust the song&#8217;s length or change the artist.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve found a suitable piece of music, you can add it to your Instagram Story. The process is the same for Reels and Stories. After selecting a song, you can scroll through the selection to find the 15-second portion that will fit your Story&#8217;s duration. If you&#8217;re not sure which song to choose, Instagram will automatically suggest music that is trending.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_from_Instagrams_sound_collection\"><\/span>Adding a song from Instagram&#8217;s sound collection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding a song to your Instagram Story can add some extra interest to your content. You can choose up to 15 seconds of music, but you can change the duration of your music by clicking the number-15 circle in the bottom left of your screen. Once you&#8217;ve added your song, your Instagram story will automatically play. Then, all you need to do is tap on the thumbnail to see the lyrics.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have a track to use, you can use the SoundCloud app to find a song to use in your Instagram story. Once you&#8217;ve found a suitable track, you can also add text and stickers to it. Once you&#8217;re happy with your story, you can publish it or send it directly to your friends. If you&#8217;re posting a story on your profile, you can easily share it with friends by clicking on the SoundCloud icon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Put Music on Instagram Stories If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to put music on Instagram stories, you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
