Instagram has become a vital tool for showcasing memories and showcasing artistic talent. A popular feature among users is the option to include music in their posts, allowing us to elevate our shared content and create a vibrant or tranquil atmosphere depending on the selected song. If you’re unsure how to add music to your Instagram post, don’t fret! This tutorial will guide you through the process step by step.
Adding Music to Your Instagram Stories
One of the ways to share music on Instagram is through Instagram Stories. Here’s how to do it:
- Open the Instagram app on your mobile device.
- Tap on the camera icon located at the top left corner of your screen to create a new story.
- Choose a photo or video from your gallery or capture a new one.
- Tap on the ‘Sticker’ button (which looks like a square smiley face) at the top of the screen.
- Select the ‘Music’ sticker.
- Choose your desired song. You can search for a specific song, browse by mood, genre or what’s popular.
- After selecting a song, choose which part of the song you would like to add. Instagram allows you to choose a specific segment of the song.
- Once done, you can add more attributes to your story such as text or other stickers, then share your story.
Adding Music to Your Instagram Posts
As of now, Instagram doesn’t allow you to add music directly to posts like you can with stories. However, there is a workaround that involves adding music to your videos before uploading them to Instagram. There are many apps available that can help you add music to your videos such as InShot, Quik, and Adobe Premiere Rush.
Let’s walk through the process using InShot:
- Download and install the InShot Video Editor from your device’s app store.
- Open InShot and select ‘Video’. Choose the video you want to upload to Instagram and tap ‘Import’.
- Click on ‘Music’, then ‘Tracks’.
- Select the song you want to add. You can also upload your music by tapping on ‘Imported Music’.
- Adjust the music to your preference. You can trim the song, adjust the volume, and choose at which point in your video you want the song to play.
- After you’re done editing, tap the ‘Share’ button at the top right corner of the screen, then ‘Save’. Now, your video is ready to be uploaded to Instagram with your selected music.
Instagram’s music feature is a great way to make your posts more engaging and express your personality or mood. Even though the process might seem a bit tricky at first, with a little practice, you’ll be a pro in no time!
