Well, it&#8217;s possible! This article will show you how to add music to your Instagram stories without using any third-party apps or stickers. The best part is that you can do this using any Android or iOS device. This method can be particularly helpful if you want to include multiple tracks in your story. To get started, download the free music app from the Google Play Store.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_music_to_Instagram_stories\"><\/span>Adding music to Instagram stories<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding music to your Instagram stories is a simple yet powerful feature that lets you add more to your Stories than just your stickers. When the app plays a song, it plays the audio track for 15 seconds on static images and for 15 seconds on videos. When you edit a Story, Instagram will break the video into 15-second mini clips. To add music to your Stories, follow these steps. Once you&#8217;ve added music to your story, you can tag it and share it with your followers.<\/p>\n<p>First, select the music player you want to add to your story. To do this, you&#8217;ll need to select the music and then touch it with two fingers. If you want to hide the lyrics, you can choose a plain label. If you prefer not to show the lyrics, you can choose an icon instead. You can also select an album from your phone&#8217;s music player. Once you&#8217;ve done that, you&#8217;ll need to publish the story to add it to your Instagram stories.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re having trouble finding music you like, you can ask your followers to suggest songs for your Instagram stories. To do this, first open the Spotify app on your smartphone. Once you&#8217;ve opened it, click on &#8220;Search&#8221; to find the song you want. Tap the song to play and select &#8220;kebab&#8221; from the menu. Adding music to Instagram stories without stickers is easy to do. Just make sure that your app is up-to-date before you add it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_music_to_Instagram_stories_without_a_sticker\"><\/span>Adding music to Instagram stories without a sticker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding music to Instagram stories is possible even if you do not use stickers. There are two ways to add music to your story: using a third-party app, such as Spotify or Amazon Music, or by swiping up and down from the screen. With the first option, the music is played for 15 seconds and then the music logo appears in the middle of the story. Using the second method, you have to be on iOS or Android to add music to your story.<\/p>\n<p>To add music to Instagram stories without stickers, first, go to the app&#8217;s Settings page. Tap the &#8220;+&#8221; button located in the top-right corner of the Home screen. From there, select &#8220;Story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Next, select your Instagram story and go to the settings. Scroll down to the &#8220;Music&#8221; option and choose &#8220;Music&#8221;. Adding music to an Instagram story without stickers is extremely easy, and can be done by following a few simple steps. To do this, navigate to the &#8220;Music&#8221; tab in the app&#8217;s interface. From there, you can change the song thumbnail and tap on it to see the lyrics. Once you&#8217;ve finished editing the audio and video, tap &#8220;Save&#8221; to add it to your story.<\/p>\n<p>To add music to Instagram stories without stickers, launch the SoundCloud app and select the &#8220;Share&#8221; button to share the audio with your followers. A sticker of the SoundCloud logo will appear next to the &#8220;Music&#8221; section in your story. You can also add text, hashtags, and polls to your Instagram story. You can also share your Instagram story with your friends or the public. Just make sure to tag the artist to properly credit them for the music.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_music_to_Instagram_stories_without_third-party_apps\"><\/span>Adding music to Instagram stories without third-party apps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to add music to your Instagram stories but don&#8217;t want to use third-party apps, there are a couple of ways to do it. One way is to use a sticker. This sticker appears as a white box with pink and orange gradient lettering. You can also find this sticker by searching for it with the search bar on top of the window. Then you&#8217;ll be presented with several song options. You can choose the part of the song you want to feature and tap Done.<\/p>\n<p>You can use a sticker to show album art and song lyrics in your story. You can also use a free music sticker to showcase your favourite song. The stickers can be resized as well as placed anywhere on your story. However, if you can&#8217;t see them, you&#8217;ll need to re-do the process. Then, you&#8217;ll be able to select another song for your story.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to add music to your Instagram stories without the help of third-party apps is to use Spotify. You can add a single song, an album, or even an entire playlist to your story. If you don&#8217;t want to use Spotify, you can just add a short story clip from a song of your choice. You can also use other music services to add music to your Instagram stories.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"207\" width=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lPss8RVjCcc\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Add Music to Your Instagram Story Without Sticker So you want to know how to add music to Instagram stories without using a sticker?
