Instagram has many useful features; one of the most popular options is to add music directly to stories, posts, and reels. Instagram offers a lengthy selection of tunes from its music library and the ability to import songs from other music streaming services, like Spotify.

When Instagram rolled out this feature, the official statement from Instagram said, “Music plays an instrumental role in enabling people to share, connect and express themselves on Instagram. With this test, Instagram hopes to give its community a way to add a soundtrack to their Feed photos, like they can with Reels and Stories already.”
