Music for Instagram Reels and Stories: what to know

Business and creator accounts

Business accounts only get Instagram’s smaller commercial music collection. A licensed track mixed into your video before upload avoids that limit; branded and sponsored posts are commercial use, covered on Pro and above.

Mix it in before you post

Export the Reel with the music already under it, rather than adding it in the app, so the level and the cut points stay exactly as you edited them.

Loop across Stories

A longer video posted to Stories plays as a run of cards. A track with a clean loop point keeps the music continuous from one card to the next.

Music for Instagram Reels and Stories: FAQ

Is this music for Instagram Reels and Stories free?

Yes. Every track downloads free in MP3 and WAV, with no account. The free download is for personal use. Commercial use, such as monetized videos, ads (including paid ad campaigns), client work, apps and games, needs Pro or above.

Can I use it in a monetized YouTube video?

Yes, on Pro or above. Monetized videos are commercial use, which the free download does not cover. Sonilo does not register library tracks with YouTube Content ID.

Do I need to credit Sonilo?

No. Library tracks need no credit or attribution, on any plan. You can still mention Sonilo if you like.

What if I can’t find the right track for Instagram Reels and Stories?

Describe the one you need — instruments, tempo, mood, length — and generate it with Sonilo’s text-to-music. New accounts get free credits; custom tracks follow your plan’s license.

License

Every track in this library is free to download for personal, non-commercial use. Using a track in ads (including paid ad campaigns), client work, or monetized or sponsored content needs Pro or above, with no revenue cap. Sonilo does not register library tracks with YouTube Content ID. A free download doesn’t come with a license certificate; on Pro and above you can get one for any track here. Use a track only as part of a larger work of your own. You may not sell, share or give away the files on their own, bundle them into sound, sample or music packs, or upload them to other stock or library sites.
