How to Add Song Lyrics to Your Instagram Story
Instagram Stories is a feature that allows users to share short-lived content, including photos and videos that vanish after 24 hours. One of the most popular ways to create an Instagram Story is to add music to it. But, with the rise of short-form video sharing apps like TikTok, more and more people are looking for ways to add song lyrics to their Instagram Stories.
Fortunately, adding song lyrics to an Instagram Story is easy, and there are a few different methods you can use to do it. Here are the steps you need to follow to add song lyrics to your Instagram Story.
- Choose a Song
The first step is to choose a song that you want to use in your Instagram Story. You can pick any song from your library, but it’s best to choose a song that has a catchy chorus or a memorable hook.
- Play the Song
Once you’ve chosen your song, play it on your device. You can use the built-in music player in Instagram to find the song, or you can use a third-party app like Spotify or Apple Music.
- Add the Song to Your Instagram Story
Open the Instagram app and swipe right to access the Stories camera. Press and hold the circle icon at the bottom of the screen to record a video or take a photo. Then, tap the sticker icon at the top of the screen (it looks like a square smiley face).
- Choose the Lyrics Sticker
In the sticker menu, look for the “Music” sticker. Tap on it, and you’ll see a list of the songs that you’ve recently played on your device. If your song doesn’t appear, you can search for it by typing the title into the search bar.
Once you’ve found the song you want to use, select the “Lyrics” option. This will bring up a box where you can type the lyrics that you want to display on your Instagram Story.
- Customize the Lyrics
By default, the Instagram app will automatically generate a moving lyric animation for your Instagram Story. You can customize the animation by changing the font, color, and style of the text.
- Share Your Instagram Story
Once you’re happy with your Instagram Story, tap the “Send” button to share it with your followers. The song will play in the background, and the lyrics will appear on the screen in time with the music.
