It can be downloaded, all music is free (there are links in the description of the video). On our channel, we use songs from there.

Free music library is also available in video editing and Stories apps.

First, upload the desired photo or video. Then there are four options to add music:

• Press the red plsik at the end of the video and download the desired audio file on your phone.

But if you have a small personal account, closed and you are sure that no one will complain about you (suddenly someone wants to be blocked out of resentment). there is a way to prevent Instagram from recognizing a popular track.

In Videoleap, you need to click on the desired audio track (or on a video that has sound). Then the button “Audio” and after “Change. Tone”.

How to Add Music to Instagram Stories Using a Sticker

! This method does not work yet in Russia and some other countries due to copyright for music. But attaching music to Stories in applications, which will be discussed later in the article, is also very simple.

• Open the Instagram Stories camera. If you have an iPhone, you can select music right away, there is a “Music” mode under the record button. You can select any part of the song. If Android. then first remove the Story (photo or video).
• Click on the “Sticker” button
• Select the “Music” sticker. You can search for a specific song, or select by genre / mood / popular. You can listen to the song and rewind to the desired passage before adding music to the Istagram Story.
• When subscribers watch your Instagram Story with music, they will see a sticker with the name of the song. BUT if subscribers are in a country where music is not available (for example, in Russia), then they will not have sound and the notification “Music is not available in your region” will appear.

Currently, the Music sticker for photos and videos in Instagram Stories is still not available in all countries. If you are watching someone’s Story on Instagram and the message “Music is not available on Instagram in your region” appears, this just means that there is a music icon in the country of the author of Stories, and you are in a country where music is not available due to copyright.

You can install a proxy on your phone so that the “music” icon appears even in a country where it does not exist. But this does not make sense, since your friends / subscribers are most likely in the same country and they will not play music anyway.

How to add music to video on iPhone?

The iPhone has a built-in video editor, but its functionality is extremely poor: all it can do is crop video. By own means of the “apple” gadget, the video can be shortened to the duration acceptable in Instagram, but to add beautiful music, thereby giving the video a mood, you will have to use the programs from the AppStore.

How to add music from your own playlist to video on iPhone?

Using the Video Toolbox utility, you can overlay on the video not only primitive melodies of the application itself, but also musical compositions from the user’s playlist. To do this, at the stage of choosing a melody (step 5 of the previous instruction), click on the “iTunes Music” button.

Video Toolbox will take you to the “Music” application. find a suitable track in the playlist and add it to the list of tunes by clicking on “”. We will choose the song “Behind Blue Eyes” by Limp Bizkit.

Mark the selected song in the Video Toolbox ringtone list and click on the checkmark in the upper right corner.

The output of the video with the superimposed musical composition from the program is performed in exactly the same way as in the case of the video, supplemented by one of the unpretentious Video Toolbox melodies.

No less convenient than Video Toolbox is another utility called Add Music to Video, which you can download here. This program has a significant advantage over the others: when exporting, it does not add watermarks to videos. In addition, it is extremely simple and concise.

Music is superimposed using Add Music to Video like this:

On the welcome screen, click “Get Started”.

Click on the “Add Video” button with the “”.

On the next screen, press the red button with the same name.

Select a suitable video in the “Camera Roll” and click on “Choose”.

This will start the compression process (“Compressing Video”).

After the video is imported into the program, click on the big button “Next”.

On the next screen, you will see two options: “Music Store” and “Add Music”.

If you go to the Music Store, you can choose from five built-in tunes to overlay on your video. The melodies are so simple that they evoke memories of the MIDI songs that were present in old push-button telephones. To add music “to the mood”, it is much more appropriate to use Video Toolbox, because built-in melodies are one of the weak points of the Add Music To Video utility.

If you need to add a song from the iPhone playlist, click “Add Music”.

Find the music track you want to use in the playlist and add it to the program through the “” button.

The utility will notify you that the audio has been loaded successfully. click “OK”.

Using the “Select the starting position” slider, you can choose where the song will play when the video starts.

Through the small “Play” button, you can turn on the song from the time at which the slider is set.

I must say that choosing a starting position is not an easy task. For example, it took about 15 minutes to “make” Limp Bizkit sing its ballad exactly from the chorus. The slider constantly moves out. adjusting it for people with thick fingers will become a real torment. However, other programs do not at all provide an opportunity to establish a starting position, so we will “be content with little”.

Once you have defined the playhead, click “Merge”. The video and audio merging process starts.

As soon as the process is completed, a message will appear on the screen stating that the video with the superimposed composition is saved in the “Photos” application. Click “OK”.

Through the “Preview” button you can preview the video and make sure that there are no watermarks on the image.

Above there is a “Share” button, which allows you to upload a video to YouTube, Instagram, send it by mail or MMS message.

The disadvantage of Add Music to Video is poor optimization for the iPhone screen. the application buttons are superimposed on the network and battery indicators, which gives the impression that the designers treated their work “slipshod”. However, the utility performs the main functions perfectly, so small design mistakes can be forgiven.

Add music to your video for Instagram

Despite the fact that a video created in Add Music to Video can be uploaded to Instagram directly, the social network for photographers itself is unlikely to allow a video prepared with this utility for publication. The fact is that Instagram has a requirement for the duration of videos. from 3 to 15 seconds. You can trim a video to the desired length in Add Music to Video, but it is very problematic to do this. you will have to spend a lot of time.

Another free utility, Clipper, will help you create videos for Instagram. You can download it here. Immediately, we note that Clipper places a watermark on the video, which costs 249 rubles to remove. The watermark, however, is barely noticeable and does not interfere too much.

To create a video for Instagram using Clipper, you need to do this:

Mark the desired video from those present in the “Camera Roll” and click on the checkmark in the upper right corner.

You will find yourself in the main window of the Clipper video editor.

Click on the video to go to the “Clip Editing” section.

In this section, you need to set the duration of the video and the area of ​​the image that will be visible on the final version of the video.

Clipper produces videos with only one resolution: 640 by 360 (width. height). If your video is taller than it is wide (that is, you were holding your iPhone upright while filming the video), you will have to crop it.

We are dealing with just such a video that needs to be cropped.

Resize the clip by pinching with two fingers anywhere in the timeline.

The default clip length is 3 seconds. You can increase up to 10 seconds. this is the limit.

Moving the frame up and down, set the area of ​​the image that will be visible on the final video.

The app will stretch the selected area to 640 x 360, so the image quality may drop.

Having decided on the duration of the video and the area of ​​the image, click on the checkmark in the upper right corner. You will return to the main window of the video editor.

Choose a suitable background music for your video. Options include pop, folk, dubstep and other styles.

You can add music from your library to the video only after purchasing the full version of Clipper, which, as already mentioned, costs 249 rubles.

Music overlay. all that remains is to output the video from Clipper. Click on the “Share” icon in the upper right corner and select the “Save to Library” option.

The process of exporting the video to the “Camera Roll” will start.

Unfortunately, you cannot upload the video directly to Instagram. you can only send it by mail or MMS.

Therefore, at the final stage, you have to find the converted video in the “Camera Roll” and post it on the social network for photographers via “Share”.

How to add music via the dedicated iPhone app?

To add music, it is recommended to use a utility with a discreet name Video Toolbox, which can be downloaded here for free.

The Video Toolbox utility is a set of tools, thanks to which you can not only place a melody over the image, but also crop the video, apply various filters to it, start playback in reverse order.

Video Toolbox is very easy to use, intuitive and does not impose “space” requirements for the iPhone operating system. even on iOS 6, this program will work.

You should add music to video using Video Toolbox like this:

On the start page of the application, select the “Video Editor” section.

You will find yourself in a mobile video editor.

Just below the video playback window there is a menu with two options: “Album” and “Camera”. Choosing the second option, you can immediately shoot a video. the application will move you to the “Camera”. We will click on “Album”: in our case, the video for editing has already been created.

Find the desired video through the “Camera Roll”, mark it and click on the checkmark in the upper right corner.

The video will be added to the editor window. By double clicking on the window, you will expand it to full screen.

Please note that the Video Toolbox watermark will be added to the video (in the upper left corner). You can remove the sign through the application settings by switching the “Display Watermark on Video” toggle switch to the inactive position, but you will have to pay 149 rubles for this.

Adding a watermark is not a unique disadvantage of Video Toolbox. almost all free video programs have such a “sin”.

Turn off your own movie sound. It is not necessary to do this, but if you leave the sound and overlay music on top, it can create an unpleasant contrast. To lower the volume to the minimum, first click on the corresponding icon in the toolbar.

Then slide the volume slider to zero.

Now you can start directly adding music.

Click on the note icon.

A menu will appear in front of you, where you can choose one of the 7 built-in melodies, depending on the mood, which, in your opinion, should transmit the video. In addition, the volume of the selected melody is adjusted in this menu.

After the choice is made, you need to click on the checkmark in the upper right corner. You will return to the editor window, where you can watch the video with the melody superimposed on top.

It remains to display the video from the program. to do this, click on the “Share” icon in the upper right corner.

Decide what video quality you want to get in the end.

For example, if you select the “High Quality” option, you will receive a video with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. Compared to HD, the resolution is quite low, but this is the best that the Video Toolbox utility and the vast majority of similar ones are capable of.

After selecting the required quality, wait for the completion of the “Rendering” process.

At the end of the process, a message will appear notifying that the video with the superimposed melody has been successfully saved in the “Camera Roll” section of the “Photos” application. Click on “Done” if you want to quit using the Video Toolbox application.

If you prefer the “Goto My Videos” option, the application will redirect you to the section of the same name, from which you can upload the created video to YouTube and Dropbox or send it by email.

Go to the “Photos” application and check how well Video Toolbox did its job. In the section “Film” you will find the converted video.

For overlaying songs from the Music application, the Add Music to Video utility is more suitable than the Video Toolbox, because it does not require money for removing watermarks and has more flexible settings (in particular, it allows you to set the start point for audio playback). On the contrary, Video Toolbox is more appropriate if there is a need to add some music to the video “to suit the mood”. the built-in Add Music to Video melodies are quite primitive.

A simple Clipper utility will help you create videos for Instagram. This application produces videos that fully meet the requirements of the social network for the duration of videos.

How to flip video on iPhone?

Very often, iPhone users, in a hurry to capture the exciting moment, begin to shoot video, holding the device in the usual position. upright. Alas, this is a mistake: the owner of the gadget will make sure that he shot the wrong one as soon as he starts watching the video on a TV or computer. Instead of a normal frame, he will see two dark stripes at the edges and a narrow image in the center.

Fortunately, such a “camera” mistake is not difficult to fix. However, you can’t do without a visit to the AppStore. the iPhone does not have built-in tools with which you could turn videos.

Select the format you want to convert the video to and click on “Save”.

At default settings, Free Video Flip and Rotate places the converted video in the My Videos folder. You can change the output folder by following the path “Options”. “Options” and finding the desired directory through the “Explorer”.

The utility also has a paid version, the only advantage of which, however, is that the inverted video can be output in the original format.

How to flip videos on iPhone through third-party programs?

The program, which was given our preference, has a very discreet name Сlip Rotate (on the device itself it is listed as Video Rotate). For some unknown reason, this utility is bypassed on thematic blogs and forums. even though it is completely free, very convenient, does not place watermarks and has an attractive interface. Download Clip Rotate here.

To flip a video using Clip Rotate, follow these instructions:

After adjusting the video rotation, click on the checkmark in the upper right corner. After that, the process of converting the video will begin.

Decide what you want to do with the modified video. You can immediately upload it to Instagram or YouTube, or send it by email (the letter will contain an advertisement for the application).

Just a couple of seconds of waiting, and the utility will notify you of a successful save.

Then you can go to the “Photos” application and make sure that the Clip Rotate utility did its job 100% and did not place a watermark on the video. An old video that was shot incorrectly should be deleted so that it does not take up precious megabytes in the device’s memory.

How to avoid “wrong” shooting?

Instead of correcting a mistake, it is better to anticipate its appearance. The user can shoot videos through the Horizon app. then he definitely won’t have to think about how to flip video on iPhone. You can download this application here.

The essence of the Horizon program is as follows: no matter how you hold the iPhone, the utility will set the frame in landscape orientation (horizontally) due to the fact that it uses the device’s gyroscope. As a result, you will get a video that does not need to be processed by additional software tools in order for it to look good on the PC screen.

You need to configure Horizon like this:

Launch the application and sequentially give it access to the microphone, current location and the “Photos” application.

Next, you will see the main screen of the program with a rectangular frame in the middle. Exactly what is included in this frame will be present in the video.

Try turning the iPhone in your hand. you will see that the frame on the screen also moves (like all icons).

Switch to the “Video” mode. for this you need to click on the button with the image of the video camera.

After this button increases in size, click on it again. this will start the video recording process.

To stop recording, click on the counter:

You can view the filmed video by clicking the button in the lower right corner.

Select the recording that interests you and launch it in the built-in Horizon player.

Already during the preview, you will notice that the program adds watermarks to the video. You can get rid of the signs through the application settings, but you will have to pay 75 rubles for this.

If the result suits you, proceed to output the video from the program.

Click the “Share” button located in the upper right corner.

In the menu that appears, select “Save Video”.

The converted video can be found in the “Camera Roll”.

You can not only download the video to the device’s memory, but also send it by SMS-message, by e-mail, via Viber and What’s App messengers.

The free version of Horizon is capable of shooting only with resolutions of 640×480 and 480×480 (moreover, for both the front and rear cameras) and with a rather mediocre frame rate. 30 frames per second. Horizon Premium is guaranteed twice the frame rate and the highest resolutions your device can handle.

To make a problem out of the fact that the video was recorded on the iPhone incorrectly means “blowing an elephant out of a fly.” Flip a video is the simplest operation: it’s about awareness. it is important for the user to know which utility does not ask for money and does not place watermarks. The procedure itself takes no more than a couple of minutes.
