Part 3. How to Add Spotify Song to Instagram Story

Have you ever wanted to add a Spotify song as background music for your Instagram Story? Whether you're aiming to enhance your content or hop on the latest trends, using music can really elevate your posts. However, while you can share songs directly from Spotify to Instagram, there may be times when you want to extract the music for more creative uses. That's where tools like the ViWizard Spotify Music Converter come into play.

Before we dive in, it's important to mention that using converted music has its risks. We don't encourage using this method for commercial purposes - stick to personal use only. If you're looking to give your Stories a unique touch, understanding how to use ViWizard can really help. With Instagram's Music sticker feature, you can add background music to your Stories, but some users have encountered issues due to the limited selection of available tracks. So, if you're wondering if it's possible to share Spotify songs as background music, the answer is yes!

To do this on your mobile device, you'll need two handy tools: ViWizard Spotify Music Converter and InShot Video Editor. If you don't already have a collection of local music to add to your Stories, let's get started with downloading ViWizard. Here's a simple guide on how to download Spotify music as local MP3 files:

Part 5. How to Play Spotify on Instagram Livestream

When you're ready to share music during your Instagram Livestream, it's essential to keep in mind that using copyrighted music can limit your livestream's reach or even lead to audio being muted.

To avoid these issues, consider opting for royalty-free music. Instagram allows up to four hours for a livestream with music and interaction.

1. Ensure that both Spotify and Instagram are updated to the latest versions on your device.
2. Curate the Spotify playlist you'd like to share during the livestream.
3. Log in and tap the '+' icon to create a new post.
4. Select the 'Live' option to start broadcasting.
5. Optionally, add a title and tag any brand partners.
6. Play your Spotify music through a separate speaker or your device's audio. Just be cautious, as Instagram may mute your livestream if it detects copyrighted tracks.
7. Instead of Spotify, tap the music icon when starting your live video to select tracks from Instagram's own music library, which are free from copyright issues.

After wrapping up your session, you can save the video to your Instagram Live Archive or share it as a Reel. Remember, saved videos are available for 30 days.
