Imagine this. You have shot a cool video of, let’s say, a beautiful scenery that you stumbled into during a trip. And you upload it without add music to WhatsApp status.
How effective would that be? Adding music to WhatsApp statuses has now become a norm. If you don’t know you also can add music to your Whatsapp Status, then this step-by-step tutorial from Insiderbits is just for you.
Method 1: Add Music to Your WhatsApp Status With InShot App (Recommended)

Steps to add music to your WhatsApp status with InShot
الخطوة 1: Click on any of the links below to download the InShot app.
الخطوة 2: Upon opening the app, click on Video, and allow it access to your photos and videos. Now choose the video you want to edit.
الخطوة 3: Tap on MUSIC at the bottom. Then again tap on MUSIC (with a plus sign). Here you can access the featured music in InShot or upload a music/audio clip from your phone.
الخطوة 4: If you want to add featured music to your video, stay on the FEATURED tab or move to MY MUSIC to add a clip from your phone. Here, I will stick with adding music from your phone as the steps are similar for both.
الخطوة 5: Allow it permission to access your music and audio. It will then show all the songs you have on your phone.
الخطوة 6: Select the music you want to add. Then press USE. The music is now added to your whole video but it is yet to be saved.
الخطوة 7: (Optional) You can remove the audio from a part using the SPLIT feature and then, deleting the part.
Step 8: (Optional) You can also add multiple audio clips using the same process.
Step 9: Once you are satisfied, press the tick mark and then tap SAVE.
Method 2: Add Music to Your WhatsApp Status With a Music App
Adding music to your video with an app is the better method of the two as the added audio sounds better and gives you more editing options. But, with a music player, the audio can be added only to a status video you have yet to record.
But if you want to try, here are steps for it:
الخطوة 1: Open your music player or any music app and start playing the song you want to add. Make sure you play it at an appropriate volume.
الخطوة 2: While the music is playing, go to WhatsApp -> Status -> Camera to start recording your video.
الخطوة 3: Your recorded video will now have the music running in the background.
Wasn’t that easy? As I said already, I would prefer to add music to a video with a video editing app (method 1) rather than using the music player (method 2). However, Method 2 is quick and doesn’t ask you to download an app. So, which one you will try first?
