  • Choose from your gallery: Swipe up or tap the gallery icon at the bottom left corner of the screen and select the photo or video you want to share.

Once you have your photo or video ready, it’s time to add music. Here’s how:

  1. Tap the Sticker Icon: After capturing your content, tap the sticker icon (a square smiley face) at the top of the screen.
  2. Select the Music Sticker: From the sticker menu, tap the "Music" sticker. This will open a new screen where you can browse and search for music.
  3. Choose a Song: You can search for specific songs using the search bar or browse through popular, recommended, or trending tracks. Once you find a song you like, tap on it.

  2. Send to Specific People: If you want to share it with specific friends, tap “Send To” and choose the people you want to share it with.

Tips for Using Music in Your Stories

  • Lyrics On-Screen: Some songs offer the option to display lyrics. This can add an extra layer of engagement to your Story.
  • Explore Different Genres: Don’t stick to one genre. Explore different types of music to keep your Stories fresh and interesting.
