Currently the strongest content on Instagram is , so using them correctly significantly increases the visibility of any page, as it helps to stand out from the competition. One of the most striking features of Instagram stories is the music sticker, however, despite the fact that it reached personal and creator profiles, not all accounts have this feature.
Reasons why you probably don’t have the music sticker in your stories yet
It’s highly unlikely that a personal or creator Page has seen the music sticker disappear from their Instagram stories, as it’s an issue that has occurred in business accounts, and the reason is easy to guess: if you share stories on Instagram with a third-party music sticker, you will use these audio tracks to advertise your products… without paying for their rights.
Despite this, it does not always happen on all pages, and the answer is in the description of the category of each business: Stores that offer products or services or are local businesses, for example, can’t have music in their stories, but can tag products in their stories. The accounts that are labeled as communities, personal blogs, art, entrepreneurs, etc., are not taken as commercial, and they will be able to add the music sticker… but they will not be able to tag products in their contentsIn addition, you should keep in mind that by putting this information in your Facebook and Instagram accounts, you offer clues to both users and Google and the same positioning on Facebook to attract your potential customers.
so please rate very well if for your strategy it is better to have the music sticker or keep the description of your business page. If you have already decided and you think it is the best option or if you chose the company profile but you do not actually sell products, you only have to follow a few simple steps to recover the music sticker in Instagram stories.
First of all, check your Instagram account
Sometimes the solution is easier than we think, and it will not always have to do with the configuration, so First we recommend you review the following points:
- Update to its latest version
- If you have the music sticker but you can’t find a specific track, it may be that some songs are not available in the library due to the region due to copyright.
- If your account has been banned, you may not be able to use the stickers.
- Have you checked your internet connection? Sometimes this works.
If none of the above options have worked for you and you still want to have music in your stories, then you will have to change the category of your account.
Retrieve the music sticker in Instagram Stories
As you know, the Facebook profile and the Instagram profile must be linked, so if you have both accounts, the first thing you should do is go to your Facebook fan page and change the description of your business. If you only have an Instagram profile, skip this first step since you only have to change the category of your page on this social network.
To change the category on Facebook you must:
- Click on “Edit information” located in the menu on the left side of the home page of your Facebook profile.
- Within “Categories” change your page description to Community, Blog, Entrepreneur, or any type of non-commercial description.
Once this field is completed also You will need to change the business category on your Instagram profile:
- Select the option “Edit profile”
- Choose “Category”
- choose the same non-commercial category that you captured on your Facebook profile.
Once you have completed the change in both profiles you will only have to wait around 48 to 72 hours to see the changes reflected, and ready! You will have music in your Instagram stories.
