How to Add Music to Facebook Profile and Story

Sometimes words and pictures don’t define our personality. And when that happens, music comes to the rescue. There’s always a song that sounds so catchy that you might as well include it in your Facebook bio if you get the chance. Thankfully, that is possible. You can add your favorite music to your Facebook profile or story.

While you can add multiple songs to your profile, you can also pin a song that will show up at the top of your profile. However, music or songs won’t automatically play when someone visits your profile. They will have to play the song by hand. Learn how to add songs to your Facebook profile and story.

How to add music to your Facebook (FB) profile

You can add multiple songs to your Facebook profile. However, the music feature is currently limited to Facebook’s mobile apps (Android and iOS). It will not show up on the desktop version of Facebook.

Follow these steps to add songs to your Facebook (FB) profile profile from Android or iPhone:

Step 1: Open the Facebook app on your Android or iPhone.

Step 2: Tap the profile icon at the top (Android) or bottom (iPhone) and tap your name to go to your profile screen.

Step 3: Scroll down to the section where you see cards like Photos, Avatars, Life Events, etc. Scroll or swipe left on these cards and tap the Music tab.

Step 4: A blank screen will open because you are using it for the first time. Tap the More (+) icon at the top.

Step 5: The song library will open. Use the search at the top to find the song of your choice. Tap the Play button next to the song to preview it, or tap the song to select it. Then go back to the previous screen and the selected song will be displayed. Click it to play.

Similarly, you can add more songs to the playlist on your Facebook profile. You can also pin songs to your profile as shown in the next section.

These songs will appear in the Music section of your Facebook profile when someone visits your profile. Songs will not play automatically. The user will have to tap on the song. Tapping on a song plays a sample (1 minute 30 seconds long) of the song. Listeners can add the song to their own profile or view the artist’s Facebook page by tapping the three-dot icon.

How to pin a song on Facebook profile

Pinned songs will appear at the top of your Facebook profile, directly under your Facebook name and profile picture, in addition to appearing in playlists in the music section. You only pin one song at a time.

Step 2: Tap the three dots icon next to the song you want to pin and select ‘Pin to Profile’ from the menu.

When someone visits your profile, they’ll see the song pinned at the top of your Facebook profile. Tapping the song plays a sample clip. Users can add songs to their profile, view the artist’s page, or listen to the full song by tapping the three-dot icon next to the song.

How to add music to Facebook stories

To add music to Facebook stories, you’ll have to use the Music sticker. Music stickers play a selected part of a song for 15 seconds if added to a photo or plain background. If stickers are used on a video, the music will last for the duration of the video (less than 15 seconds).

Follow these steps to add music tags to your Facebook stories on Android and iPhone:

Step 1: Open the Facebook app on your phone.

Step 2: Tap Create story or Add to story at the top of the home screen.

Step 3: Then tap on the Music Card present at the top. You may have to swipe your card to see all of them.

Or, select the photo you want to add music to. Once you select the photo, tap the Music option.

Step 4: In both cases, you will be taken to the Facebook song library screen. Here search and select the song you want to add. Tap the song you want to add, or tap the Play button to preview it.

Step 5: Facebook will place the music tag on the photo or background and will automatically play the popular part of the song. You can view other popular parts or the one with the lyrics by tapping the star above the slider. If you don’t like the auto-generated parts, use the scroll bar to move to your favorite part of the song. Or, tap the card styles to cycle through the different styles. Click Done.

Step 6: You will be taken to the story edit screen where you can modify the story by adding doodles, text and stickers to modify your story.

Step 7: Click the Share button to add to your story.
