You can add a song as a reel, video, or static image. Using the font style of your choice will let you choose how to display the song&#8217;s lyrics. You can also customize the music player that appears below the photo. To add a song to your Instagram Story, follow the steps listed below.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_to_an_Instagram_Story\"><\/span>Adding a song to an Instagram Story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can add a song to an Instagram Story with a photo and video. Unfortunately, the audio track will be lost once you download the Story. However, you can use third-party apps to link a song with your photo or video. These apps will also allow you to set the duration of the music. You can add the music to your story by choosing a length from five to fifteen seconds.<\/p>\n<p>First, download the Spotify app. It is free and available for both iPhone and Android. Once you have installed the app, find the appropriate sticker icon and tap it. The app will then display a list of songs recommended by the service. Then, tap on a song and adjust the slider bar to select the exact portion of the song that plays on your Instagram Story. Adding a song to an Instagram Story will only play for 15 seconds, so be sure to choose the right song.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_to_a_reel\"><\/span>Adding a song to a reel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can add audio to your Instagram Story by searching for it in the audio browser and selecting it. Then, you can select a 15-second piece of music or sound and add it to your Reel. After you&#8217;ve added audio, you can caption and tag your story with a hashtag. Once you&#8217;re finished with your reel, you can share it on Instagram and let your followers know what it&#8217;s all about.<\/p>\n<p>To add a song to your reel, you can add an audio file to your in-app music library. Simply select a song from your library and tap on the &#8220;Add to Story&#8221; button. The song will appear in an overlay. From here, you can edit the music sticker, including its font and cover art. You can also add captions to the song. When creating your reel, don&#8217;t forget to take the time to caption it so that it matches the rest of your Instagram Story.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_to_a_video\"><\/span>Adding a song to a video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to include music in your story, you can do this in two ways. First, add a sticker to the Story. Adding a sticker allows you to add text and images to the Story. Secondly, you can add music to the Story using YouTube. After you add the sticker, you can edit its size or position. You can also edit its display options and add text.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can upload your own music. The easiest way to do so is to sign in to YouTube, click on &#8220;My Music&#8221; on the navigation bar, and select a song. Be careful to use copyrighted material, so be sure to choose the right music. Sound effects can also be added. The sound effects can last 15 seconds. After adding music, you can export the video.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_song_to_a_static_image\"><\/span>Adding a song to a static image<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you want to add a song to a static image on Instagram, you need to follow a few steps. First, you need to choose a music icon in your story. Afterward, you can drag it to another location. Next, tap the &#8220;Music&#8221; sticker to add a song to the photo. After this, you can change the song&#8217;s size and orientation with your two fingers. Double-tapping the song icon changes its size and orientation. It also gives you the option to hide the lyrics or drag it off the screen. When you have finished creating the sticker, you can publish it.<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;re ready to add a song to your Instagram story, tap the &#8220;Music&#8221; icon. Then, you need to select a song or a sound effect. You can either use a feature that offers featured tracks or choose your own. Make sure you&#8217;re careful with copyright material, as you don&#8217;t want to violate anyone&#8217;s rights. If you&#8217;re using a sound effect, you can also choose from a wide range of choices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Add Song in Instagram Story With Photo and Video When you want to add a song to your Instagram Story, you have many different options.
