My Question or Issue

 I just updated my spotify app and got the 'share to instagram story' option. I tried and it works. But when I tried for the second time (the next day) that option was gone. I can't find that option again.

Anyone could advice me how to fix this? Thank you.

Hey @glngadhi,

Thanks for letting us know about this.

We are currently working with Instagram to make this option available for everyone soon!

Right now we cannot provide an exact timeframe on when it's going to be out to everybody.

In the meantime, we recommend you keep both your apps updated.

Thanks!

Hey there @glngadhi,

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community!

We'd first recommend performing a clean reinstall of the app by following the steps here. 

If that doesn't do the trick, we'd suggest making sure your Instagram application is also on the latest version available.

Let us know how it goes 🙂

Hi @Katerina,

I'm having the same issue. I reinstalled both apps (following the steps you linked to for Spotify) and ensured that they were the latest versions, but I still don't see the option to share to my Instagram story (see attached).

Hey @Chiefplague,

Thanks for reaching out to us about this.

Could you confirm the exact versions of Spotify and Instagram that you are rocking?

We'll be looking out for your reply so we can help you out further with this 🙂

Spotify : 8.4.84.874

Instagram : 75.0.0.23.99 

Also I tried an earlier version of Spotify and it also had set as instagram story option for like an hour its version was : 8.4.75.670 after one hour the button dissappeared

Hey @Chiefplague.

Thanks for getting back to us with that info.

Could you try the following for us and see if it fixes the issue:

• Perform a clean reinstall of the Spotify app
• Try using the Share to IG Stories option from another Spotify account
• Try using the same account on a different device and see if it persists
• Try a different connection
• Clear cache

Let us know how you get on! We'll be right here if you still need help.

For a long time I have not been able to share a song from spotify onto my instagram story. When I click share I get options for whatsapp, facebook, messenger and SMS. If I click more I have the option to share to instagram as a direct message to another user, but not to my story... Both apps are completely up to date and I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled both spotify and instagram many times. I dont know what the problem is or what to do but its starting to bug me:(

Tried all that but it still didn't help
