I can't share music in instagram stories

[Peter]

Hey folks,

Thanks for raising this issue with us. 

First, please could you confirm if you're trying to share music to your Instagram stories but are redirected to sign in to Instagram instead? This thread concerns this specific issue.

If so, could you make sure that you have reinstalled both Spotify and Instagram, and that when you are trying to share to your Instagram Stories you are logged into both your Spotify and Instagram accounts?

If that doesn't work for you, please could you leave the following information:

• Device and OS
• Spotify version
• Instagram version?

Thanks!

I have exactly the same problem on iPhone XS! Everything is up do date, I’m not sure why Instagram asks me to sign in when I try to share from Spotify. Once I do sign in, it just brings me to the main Instagram page and the song isn’t shared.

Same issue, cannot share from Spotify to Instagram Story, tried reinstalling but didn't work. Attempted from iPhone 5s on IOS 12.

Same happening for me.

On an iPhone XS. Running iOS 12.1.

Uninstalled and reinstalled both apps twice with latest versions available.

This is what’s happening to me. I click share > instagram stories. Where it would normally send it to the story, it redirects to instagram’s login screen. And I am logged in to both apps.

I’m on an iPhone XS Max running:

iOS 12.0.1

Spotify 8.4.75

Instagram 67.0

Someone suggested Instagram changed up their API, but I’m not sure about this. I’m hardly a software developer. I reported this to Instagram as well.
