To add music to an Instagram photo, follow these steps:
1. Open the Instagram app on your device. If you’re not already logged in, enter your username and password to access your account.
2. Once you’re on the home screen, swipe the screen to the right or tap on your profile picture in the upper-left corner. This will take you to your “Story” section.
3. Now, it’s time to add a new story. You can either take a photo or video using the camera icon at the bottom of the screen, or you can select an existing photo or video from your device’s gallery by swiping up.
4. After selecting the photo or video you want to use, tap on the sticker icon at the top of your screen. It looks like a square smiley face with a folded corner.
5. Among the various sticker options, locate and select the “Music” sticker. It’s represented by a music note icon.
6. Once you’ve chosen the “Music” sticker, you can customize it by selecting the specific part of the song you want to include in your story. You can drag the slider to choose the desired section, and you can also tap on the lyrics button to add song lyrics to your story.
7. If you want, you can also change the design of the music sticker by tapping on it. This will allow you to choose a different color, font, or style to match the aesthetic of your story.
8. After customizing the music sticker, you can position it anywhere on your photo or video. Simply drag and drop it to the desired location.
9. If you want to further enhance your story, you can also add other stickers, text, or drawings by using the available options at the top of the screen.
10. Once you’re satisfied with your creation, tap the “Your Story” button in the bottom-left corner to share it as a story visible to your followers. Alternatively, you can send it directly to specific friends by tapping on the “Send To” button.
That’s it! You’ve successfully added music to your Instagram photo or video. Now, your followers can enjoy the visual content along with the accompanying music.
