This article will detail how you can fix your Instagram music using these methods.

What To Do When You Notice Your Instagram Music Stops Working?

When you can’t use music in your story anymore, the first thing is to ensure you still have the music sticker that allows you to incorporate music with a story. This can be checked directly from your Instagram feed in two ways. The first method is to tap on the “your story” icon at the far left of the story icons on your main page. Then, follow these steps after you click on the icon. You can also add music using the “+” icon beside the messaging icon on the main feed. Next, click on “Story” and repeat the above steps. When neither of these methods works, you can try the fixes listed below.

Update Your Instagram Application

Issues causing certain features not to work on Instagram usually stem from using an older app version. So first, try updating your Instagram to the latest version on Playstore for Android phones or the Apple Store for iOS devices. When you update, open the app and try using the music sticker feature again.

Log Out of Your Account and Sign In

If, after updating, you’re still facing the same issue, try logging out of your account and signing in. Unfortunately, Instagram users rarely sign out of their accounts which might not allow updates to apply immediately. These are the steps to follow if you do not know where to sign out of your Instagram account. This will log you out of the account, and you’ll be prompted to re-login by providing your username and password. When you re-login, check if the Instagram music feature is now working for you on your Stories.

Change From Your Professional Account to Personal Account

Several business accounts had reported losing the Instagram music feature when they switched from personal to professional. Hence, you might lack the feature because you are using a professional account. Switch to personal account and try out the music feature again.

Reinstall Instagram

If any of these methods still do not bring back your music feature, you might want to reinstall the social app on your phone. This will clear all cache that might be corrupt and prevent you from accessing Instagram music, and you’ll need to provide your login credentials on logging in.

Use VPN To Access Your Instagram Account

Most times, Instagram music won’t work because the song you want to use is unavailable in your region. And if you have to use exactly that song, you can choose to use a VPN, selecting a country with that song available. This method works for most people with the “unavailable song” option.

Upload the Song Directly From Your Music Streaming Platform

If Instagram Music shows no results for the music you want, you can upload it directly from your music streaming platform. Find the share button on your preferred song from your music streaming platform and share it with your Instagram story.

Contact Instagram Support

If none of these methods works for you, you can try reaching the Instagram support team to know the matter with your Instagram music. Use the report a problem feature in your profile settings to ensure a response from the support team.

Conclusion

These are known ways that you can use to fix your Instagram music problems. Reaching the support team should be your last option when all else fails. Have fun with your stories!
