Instagram has launched a new feature allowing users to add a 30-second song clip to their profile. This feature, reminiscent of the old Myspace days, enables users to showcase their favorite tracks directly on their profiles.
How to Add a Song to Your Instagram Profile
Follow these steps to add a song:
- Open Instagram: Launch the Instagram app on your phone.
- Access Your Profile: Tap on your profile picture at the bottom of the screen.
- Edit Profile: Click on ‘Edit Profile’ and select the ‘Music’ option, which will display the text “Add music to your profile.”
- Pick a Song: Tap on “Pick a song for your profile” to browse through Instagram’s song library or search for a specific track.
- Select a Clip: Choose a 30-second segment of the song you want to feature on your profile.

This update was introduced in collaboration with Sabrina Carpenter, who has a teaser of her upcoming song “Taste” on her profile. This feature provides a new way for users to personalize their profiles and connect with their favorite music.
