Instagram Reels: How to Add Music to a Clip

Customize your video with a song before you record

Instagram’s new Reels feature allows users to record and share 15-second videos that can contain more than one clip. The Reels feature allows you to customize your videos in multiple ways. For instance, you can add a song to your video that will play as you record a clip (and will then be part of your final video). Our guide will show you how to add music to a clip before recording it.
