How to add downloaded audio from your device to your Instagram Story

You can also add any audio saved on your device locally to your Instagram Story. While Instagram does not let you add any local audio directly, you can use a third-party app to stitch the audio to your Story and then upload it on Instagram. Here’s how you can do it.  Step 1: Go to Instagram and click on ‘Your Story’ at the top left corner of the screen to add a story. Step 2: If you’re adding a video as your Story, make sure you mute it after you’re done recording the video.

Step 3: Click on the three dots and save the Story to your device. Press back and go back to your Instagram homepage while discarding all changes. Step 4: Now you need to add the downloaded audio on your device to this video. You can do this by using any basic video editing app like CapCut or Video Sound Editor.  Step 5: Once you’ve added the audio, save the changes and open Instagram again. Step 6: Tap on ‘Your Story’ and add the recently edited video from the gallery to your Story. Tap on the arrow icon to share.
