Including music in your TikTok videos is a wonderful way to elevate your content and engage with your viewers. Being a frequent TikTok user, I have tried out different techniques for incorporating music into my videos and I am thrilled to share my knowledge with you!

The TikTok Music Library

TikTok provides a vast music library that you can choose from to add to your videos. To access the music library, simply open the TikTok app and follow these steps:

  1. Tap on the “+” icon in the center of the bottom menu to create a new video.
  2. On the recording screen, tap the “Sounds” button at the top of the screen.
  3. You will be presented with various categories and playlists to choose from. You can browse through them and explore different genres.
  4. Once you find a song you like, tap on it to see a preview of how it sounds.
  5. If you’re happy with the song, tap the “Use this sound” button to add it to your video.

Adding Your Own Music

While the TikTok music library offers a wide range of options, you may want to add your own music to create a more personal touch in your videos. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Before recording your video, open your preferred music streaming app or music player on your device.
  2. Select the song you want to use and start playing it.
  3. Now, switch back to the TikTok app and start recording your video.
  4. The music playing in the background will be captured by the app’s audio recording feature.
  5. After recording your video, you can trim the music by dragging the sliders at the bottom of the screen to adjust the start and end points.

Adding Music from Other Videos

Another way to add music to your TikTok videos is by using a sound from another user’s video. If you come across a video with a song you like, you can easily add it to your video by following these steps:

  1. Find the video with the sound you want to use and tap on the “Share” button.
  2. On the sharing options, select “Duet” or “React”.
  3. The video will open in a split-screen view with the original video on one side and your camera on the other.
  4. You can adjust the duration of the sound by dragging the soundwave icon at the bottom of the screen.
  5. Once you’re ready, tap the red record button to start recording your video with the selected sound.

Conclusion

As you can see, adding music to your TikTok videos is a fun and creative way to make your content more engaging. Whether you choose music from TikTok’s library, add your own personal music, or use a sound from another video, the possibilities are endless. So go ahead, experiment with different songs, and let your creativity shine on TikTok!
