  • After choosing the song, the next thing we can do is select the section of the track and choose between a duration of 5 to 15 seconds for the song to sound. We can also select the style of the sticker and even if we want the lyrics of the song to be displayed (as long as it is available).

  • Accept the changes, adjust the size and placement of the sticker and … publish your creation!

Other ways to add music to your Stories

In addition to using the Instagram Music sticker , we can directly import music from other services to show them in stories in a very simple way. The secret is in the share function, something that we can do from services like Spotify, Shazam and even SoundCloud. How?

  • From Spotify

Put yourself in situation. You’re listening to your favorite Spotify playlist when a great song sounds. The rush takes over you and you decide to share with your contacts the moment you are living. How do you do it? Easy.

Once sent, you can resize the image and publish it immediately with your contacts.

  • From Shazam

Imagine that you are in the middle of a party, a great song sounds and you want to communicate it to your followers. Don’t worry, you can do it without problems. For that we will use Shazam, from which we will recognize the song that is playing at that moment and we will send it to Instragram using the share button again.
