Facebook, following the path already taken by Instagram, is introducing in its Stories and Posts the possibility of inserting our favorite songs
In continuous change. Facebook continues to modify its services, with the aim of improving their usability and increase interaction between users. So, after announcing the upcoming launch of Messenger 4, the social network of Mark Zuckerberg is preparing to add a new feature to the social platform.
This is Facebook Music, a new feature (the result of the agreement of the social with the music labels halfway around the world) that will allow all Facebook members to add songs to the Stories (as already happens on Instagram) and in the Post. In short, in a few weeks (the feature will not be released immediately in all countries) our Facebook wall could be sound as it has never been. Not only that: in the coming months, in fact, users will have the ability to add a song to their profile as well, so as to let their friends or people who would like to add them on Facebook know what their tastes are. Obviously, the song can be modified whenever you want, so you can update your profile to your musical tastes. And if you feel like you’ve heard of this feature before, don’t be mistaken: it was already present in MySpace before Facebook stole the scepter of the world’s largest social network.
How to add music to Facebook Stores and Posts
Adding a song to a Story or a Post on Facebook is exactly the same as Instagram. Before uploading a new content, be it a normal post or a Story, we’ll see the music label: just click on it (or click on it, if we’re using a PC) to access Facebook’s music database and choose from thousands of songs, from the most popular to the niche ones. Also on Facebook, as well as on Instagram, the chosen song will remain as a small sticker to add to our Story or Post. The sticker will show the name of the artist and the name of the song we selected. The sticker can be moved anywhere in a Facebook Story, where you can also use other stickers, again like Instagram.
Facebook with this new feature is not only trying to chase the success of Instagram with the Music Stories but above all wants to accustom its users to the next step, which is the release of the function Lip Sync Live. For those who do not know it is a kind of Karaoke function through which we can post videos of us dancing and singing with one of our favorite songs in the background. A sort of alternative to the platforms very popular among young people like Musical.ly and Tik Tok.
