There are two ways to add music to Instagram stories. Adding music from Spotify is the easiest method, but it requires some basic setup. In addition, the song length should be at least 15 seconds, but you can make it longer or shorter depending on the type of content you&#8217;re posting. The length of your song defaults to 15 seconds, so be sure to change the length of your clip accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Spotify_integration_required\"><\/span>Spotify integration required<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Spotify is now integrated with Instagram, allowing you to share songs and playlists on Instagram stories. When you add music to Instagram stories, your followers can listen to the song and watch the video directly in the app. After the video, simply go to your story, tap on the sticker, and the cover art will be displayed. You can adjust the background of your Story, add text, stickers, or GIFs to enhance your content, and share it.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to share music on Instagram, you must have an account with Spotify. This way, you can share music on Instagram stories while chatting with your friends. First, open the Instagram app and sign in. Then, click the share icon on the top right corner. From there, you can choose the song you want to share, then tap &#8220;Share&#8221; to post it to Instagram. When sharing the video on Instagram, you can also choose to post it in your Facebook or Twitter profile.<\/p>\n<p>To add music to Instagram stories using Spotify, first sign in to your account. After logging in to your Spotify account, go to your Instagram story. Tap the &#8220;Play on Spotify&#8221; option in the upper left corner of your image to listen to the song. If you have Spotify on your mobile, your story will open with the song you&#8217;ve uploaded. It&#8217;s that easy! And you can share it anywhere you want, including to your followers!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maximum_15-second_song_length\"><\/span>Maximum 15-second song length<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to add music to your Instagram stories, you should be aware of the maximum song length on the platform. This rule applies to the duration of the music segment, and Instagram allows a maximum length of 15 seconds. Alternatively, you can directly add a song to your stories by using the Spotify feature. You&#8217;ll have to adjust the length of the song before you upload it to your Instagram stories, but the process bar is visible at the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>Because Instagram stories only last for a few seconds, it is important to use music that is relevant to the content. Songs that are over 15 seconds long should not be too long, and be limited to five seconds. Alternatively, you can add multiple video clips to an Instagram story to add visual variety and motion to the post. A 14-second video explaining a new product&#8217;s features can be a helpful way to keep your audience interested.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most common mistakes beginners make is trying to fit too much music into a 15-second Instagram story. The fact is, you should aim for a maximum length of five seconds. Alternatively, you can opt for a longer song length. Regardless, you should use filters to help you pick the best song for your Instagram story. Remember to also choose the music quality, as long as you&#8217;re happy with the results.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Customizable_music_sticker\"><\/span>Customizable music sticker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re fond of music and want to share it with your followers, you can use a Customizable Music Sticker for Instagram Stories. The app allows you to upload 15 seconds of any song to your Stories. You can also search for songs by genre, name, artist, and mood to find the perfect music to add to your Instagram Story. After adding the music sticker, you can change the color of the lyrics and the background, and then share it on Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have installed the app, you can easily customize the Instagram Story with the music you want to add to it. It supports texts, doodles, and stickers. You can add GIFs, polls, and a variety of other features. Additionally, you can now share music videos directly from Apple Music to your Stories. If you have an Apple Music account, you can even choose a song from your favorite album to add to your Instagram Story.<\/p>\n<p>Customizable music stickers for Instagram stories make it easy to add a musical track to your Story. You can choose the song and the sound clip you&#8217;d like to use, and the app will automatically play the selected song as your Story viewers watch it. If you&#8217;re looking to make your Story stand out from the crowd, you can also add lyrics to your Story to make it more personal. It&#8217;s easy to customize your Story with a Music Sticker and you&#8217;ll love how much fun it can be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Add Music to Instagram Stories If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to add music to Instagram stories, read this article to learn how to do it.
