We’re sharing all the details — including how to access and use the feature, below.
What Is Instagram’s Music in Feed Feature?
According to Instagram, the Music in Feed feature will “provide creators with more tools to bring their content to life.”
Knowing that music is already frequently used to complement Stories and Reels, this new feature is a logical move for Instagram.
With it, creators and users alike can get creative and add a whole new layer of storytelling to their posts.
We're here for it.

How To Add Music To Instagram Feed Posts
First, go to your profile and press the ”+” sign in the top right corner to add a post to your feed.
Next, choose your photo, add your caption, tags, hashtags, and location — similar to how you usually do it.
Then, to add music to your post, click on the "Add music" option:
You'll be prompted to search for songs or browse the "For You" section to select your audio.
Once you've made your choice, you can select the audio clip you'd like to use:
NOTE: You can choose clips between five to nine seconds in length.
Then click “Done” and “Share.” It’s that easy.
