Table of contents:
The end of the year is approaching and, with it, the lists and recommendations of movies, books, comics and music flood the networks and after-dinner chats. Social networks, how could it be otherwise, can serve as a perfect showcase for our likes, affiliations and phobias and thus teach the world what they cannot miss, what they have to listen to and what they have to see. Instagram has put the batteries in this regard and has added a new feature to its music function that, if you are a melonamo, you cannot miss.
It's about being able to make a story in which we ask our followers what song we should listen to. When they see our question and want to answer us, they can do so by placing one of the songs offered to us in the music section. Let's see in detail how to ask and answer about music in Instagram Stories
How to ask about music on Instagram
Let's start by making a story as always, that is, sliding your finger to the right of the screen or clicking on the camera icon. We take a photo and slide the screen up, looking for the 'Questions' sticker. When we have seen it, click on it and the window will appear to ask a question. If you look closely you will see a musical note icon Press it. At that time, the question box will read 'What song should I listen to?'.We can choose the color we want for the question by pressing the little button that we see at the top of the screen. We can also change the question, editing it, in case we want to further refine our question. Then we press done, send the story and now wait for the responses to be sent to us.
When we want to see the recommendations, we must go to our story by clicking on the top icon of our photograph, we go to the story in which we asked for recommendations and slide it up with our finger. All the proposals that our Instagram friends have sent us will appear in a carousel. If we want to answer them back, click on 'Respond' and 'Share answer'. The response can contain a video of us while the song is playing In addition, we can choose which piece of the song we want to share in the story by sliding the horizontal bar.If we let the default excerpt play, we can hear the chorus or the most recognizable part of the song.
How to respond to a friend with a song
When you see a story asking for song recommendations, we do the following.
In the story, we press 'Choose a song'. Next, a dropdown will open with three tabs, popular songs, moods and genres. You can search for the song where you can read 'Search Music'. When we have chosen it, we select it, it will be marked in blue, click on the lower bar of 'Send' and that's it. In this simple way we will have sent our favorite song to the Instagram user who requested it.
As you can see, asking about music in Instagram Stories is very simple. Let it not be said that you don't listen to everything!
