How to add music to Instagram Notes
Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive officer of Meta, has rolled out a significant update to Instagram's feature suite, aiming to add a dash of musicality to the way we communicate on the platform. Instagram's Notes, a minimalist status feature previously reserved for text messages and emojis, now enables users to add up to 30 seconds of audio from the platform's expansive music library. The announcement was made on Meta's official channel and has generated a buzz among Instagram's global user base.
The Instagram Notes feature allows users to share brief text messages or emojis visible only within the chat section. The newly announced update will now permit users to embellish these notes with 30 seconds of music. These musical notes, like the text-based ones before them, remain active for a period of 24 hours.
Users can easily replace or remove these musical notes as they see fit. Plus, they can control the accessibility of these notes by selecting who can see them, such as their followers or a more intimate circle of close friends. At the time this article was written, we were unable to test the music notes feature on both Android and iOS platforms.
