Imagine scrolling through Instagram, only to stumble upon a profile that instantly captures your attention—not just through stunning photos or witty bios, but with a song that perfectly embodies the person behind the account.
Instagram is now adding a new layer of self-expression to your profile: music. With its latest feature, users can pin a song to their profile, allowing their favourite tunes to set the tone for visitors.

This Instagram update is available to everyone, from casual users to creators, making your profile more dynamic and uniquely you.

This feature allows you to express your personality and mood through music. Whether you are feeling upbeat, nostalgic, or anything in between, there is a song for every vibe.
