Don’t you think that some songs display your vibe? Such songs would describe your personality very appropriately. The new feature of Facebook allows you to add a song to your profile that would display your taste, and also spice up your feed. The best part is that the process of adding music to a Facebook profile is a very easy task and in case you haven’t tried it yet, this article will be a solution.
Why should you add Music to your Facebook profile?
You can add music to your Facebook profile to amp up the entire look of your feet. Facebook has evolved in many ways over time. The music feature is also a very good feature that has only been added recently. You can use it effectively to make your profile look more interesting.
However, one thing to note here is that someone who visits your profile won’t be able to hear the music automatically. They will have to tap on the button manually to begin listening to your profile music. Moreover, the music feature is only available for android and iOS. Therefore you won’t be able to add music to Facebook profile through a desktop browser.
How to Add Music to Facebook Profile
If you are a Facebook buff, you must have definitely seen the Music card under your name on your main profile. But in case you haven’t, just follow the steps:
- Go to your Facebook Profile and scroll down to spot the photos and life events. There you will find the Music card. Tap on it.
Note: If you are opening this card for the first time then it will most likely be blank.
- To add the first song, tap on the plus sign (+) on the right-hand side of the screen.
After tapping on the plus icon, the song library will be opened. Use the search bar to search for the song that you would like to add to your Facebook profile.
- Once you spot the song, tap on the song to add it to your profile. Navigate back to your Music section, the song that you just added will be mentioned here.
Another interesting thing that you can do here is that, instead of adding a single song, you can display your entire playlist. You can use the same steps to add even more songs. Once done, make sure to refresh your Facebook profile!
How will your Profile Visitors listen to the Songs on your Profile?
As mentioned above, for profile visitors the song won’t be played automatically. They will have to navigate to the music card and tap on it to see your playlist. In case they want to listen to a song, they can tap on their preference and the song will be played.
Unfortunately, a clip of one minute 30 seconds duration of the entire song will be played for the profile visitors. In case you would like to hear the whole song, you would have to navigate to Spotify. Profile visitors can also check the official Facebook page of the artist by tapping on the three dots near the song. They can even add the same song to their playlist on Facebook.
How to Pin your favorite Song on Facebook Music
It is true that you might have maintained an entire playlist on Facebook music. But there are times when you would like to mention your favorite songs right on the top of the list.
