Hi. Sorry if it's the wrong sub, but I don't know where else this problem fits. I don't even know if it's considered a problem, it's just a feature that it's annoying and I have no control of option over it, nobody else I know is having this thing.

I don't see this feature more often on my friend's stories when they share music from spotify on their Instagram Stories, but when I share, it starts automatically playing 5 seconds of a random part of the music I shared. I don't want it to play, because I can't have control over the part of the music playing and it disables the video/canvas on music that have the feature. I don't see no one having this thing anymore, it's just a normal share of the song. I don't understand why mine have to play a song along with the story as a default now.

Hey @Akernihil,

Welcome to the Community and thanks for reaching out!

Based on the screen recording you've provided, your Instagram looks slightly different than on my end (my stories from Spotify don't autoplay either). Instagram run their own tests, so you might occasionally see something your friend doesn’t, or get a new feature to try temporarily.

Hopefully it won't be too long before you get the desired experience. The Community is always here if something else comes up in the meantime.

Cheers!

The same thing is happening to me! Nobody seems to have this problem, it's so frustrating and honestly driving me insane. Please share if you find a solution.

Hey, how are you? This "problem" fixed itself by time, one day it simply stopped appearing this way for me. The thing is, I noticed some friends of mine seems to have an option to enable/disable this feature, since sometimes they share music with sound and sometimes without. I think it'll eventually stop to show this way.

I hope the problem resolves itself for me too. It's super annoying.
