Instagram Launches One-Tap Spotify Song Saving Feature for Reels
Instagram has integrated a new feature allowing users to directly add songs from Instagram Reels to their Spotify library with a single tap.
Adding Instagram songs to Spotify
How the Feature Works:
- While watching Instagram Reels, users can tap to view song information
- A new button appears next to the song preview player
- Tapping this button instantly adds the song to your Spotify library
- Added songs appear in both 'Liked Songs' playlist and 'Your Library' tab
Requirements:
- Latest versions of both Instagram and Spotify apps
- Spotify account linked to Instagram

This integration mirrors TikTok's existing functionality, which allows users to add songs to various music streaming platforms. Currently, Instagram's feature is exclusively available for Spotify users, though expansion to other streaming services may follow.
Spotify states this integration aims to strengthen artist-fan connections and enhance music discovery through social media. The feature addresses the growing trend of music discovery through social platforms, making it easier for users to save songs they discover while browsing Instagram.
