Our music products
Facebook and Instagram Stories
Stories are fullscreen, immersive experiences that disappear after 24 hours. People can add your music and lyrics to their photos and videos, creating a soundtrack for their story.
To add music and lyrics to Stories, select the music sticker from the sticker tray after taking a photo or video. Choose a song and use the scrubber tool to select the part of the song you want to use.
Facebook and Instagram Reels
Reels are short-form videos that people create with music, original audio, AR effects and creative tools. We've seen our Reels community use music and sounds to express themselves and share the songs they love through their content.
People can discover new music through the Audio Browser or in the Reels tab. The Audio Browser surfaces music through the “For You” section, your saved music, and allows you to search for a specific song or artist. Anyone can access these music clips and use the audio to create their own reels.
*Facebook Reels are currently only available in the US
