Unfortunately, a common practice for Facebook and Instagram stories is still missing for WhatsApp statuses, which is the function of adding music to photos. However, there is a little trick to sharing music via your status. Then, how to put photo with music on WhatsApp status?
How to put a photo with music on your WhatsApp status?
First of all, we would like to clarify that this tip only works with videos that you record. You can't use it to add music to video clips, photos, or text already saved on your phone.
What you need is WhatsApp and a streaming app like Spotify. The following steps allow you to add the desired song to the status:
- Open the music streaming app and launch the song you want to stream in the video. Note that you are limited to 30-second videos per status, so find the part of the song that interests you most.
- 2- Then pause your music.
- 3- Now go to WhatsApp and go to My Status. Tap the camera icon in the bottom right corner to switch to recording mode.
- 4- Swipe the screen from top to bottom to access the Spotify widget.
- 5- Press Play to continue your music.
- 6- Record the video (press and hold the record button). The music played will be broadcast in the background and recorded through the microphone.
- 7- Then you can customize the video with a caption or stickers and then share it by pressing the send status button.
Note: This tip only works if the background music is played through the smartphone's speakers and not through the headphones (because the microphone does not record any music that plays through the headphones).
You should also set the music to a loud enough level to mask any ambient noise. This form of video recording is not suitable for particularly high ambient noise levels (wind, traffic) or in public places where discretion is required.
Add music via a third-party app
If you don't like the method mentioned above, or you want your video/photo to have better audio quality, you can download an app to add the music you want.
Therefore, you can download an application to edit the video and add the music you want.
A very popular app for doing this is InShot. With it, just upload the video in question and add the music you want.

With it in the gallery, all you have to do is upload it to your WhatsApp status.
