Instagram Allows Music Changes on Posts Without Losing Engagement

Instagram Allows Music Changes on Posts Without Losing Engagement

Instagram has added a new feature that lets users change the music on their feed posts and carousels even after they've been published.

This is great because it means you can switch songs without losing any likes, comments, or shares.

Before, if you wanted to change the music, you had to delete the post and upload it again, which would make you lose all the engagement.

Now, you can just edit the post and pick a new song.

This is especially helpful for creators who use music a lot in their posts.

They can update the music to fit better or just refresh older posts.

Instagram's CEO, Adam Mosseri, has also mentioned this feature.

It's a simple process: open the post, tap edit, and choose a new track.

The post stays the same, and all the likes and comments stay too.
