05. Share a Spotify Song On An Instagram Story

There are few things worth sharing in this world and music is one of those things. People on Instagram have accustomed to sharing pretty much everything that happens in their lives. What they eat, what they wear, the places they go, the music they listen and much more.

This is why Instagram stories was created. So people could share images, videos and everything they could think of on a daily basis. However, sharing music through an Instagram story was not possible, or at least not until now. Let’s see how it’s done.

First of all, tap your thumb on the Spotify app. Select the song you will like to share and start listening.

After doing that, tap the three dots (…) located on the right side of song’s title. Doing so will allow you to select the share option. Scroll down and press where it says Instagram story.

Finally just add the song to your stories and you are good to go.

04.  One Time Photos

How does sending a photo to a friend that disappears after it has been viewed sound? Well, now you can do it with Instagram Direct.

Instagram Direct is a private messaging feature for the popular photo-sharing app that allows you to send messages, share photos and videos with just one specific user, or multiple users from a group. With this feature, you can send messages to both people who you follow and people who you don’t.

However, what’s interesting about Instagram Direct is that it now allows you to do something very similar to what Snapchat users often do. Send media that disappears after it’s been viewed. Let’s see how to do it in six simple steps.

2. Take A Photo Or Record A Video
3. Tap the One View Button on the Bottom of the Screen

5. Select the Person or People you want to send your Media
6. Tap Send
