Hey folks,

Thanks for reaching out to us about this on the Community.

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!

Tried it allowed me to do it once but once I try again to make sure it only takes to the ig screen to take a picture or record instead of the Spotify song

Hey @davidnz89.

Hope that helps! Let us know if you have any further questions.

Para os BR:

O problema está na sua conta, não no app. 

Criem uma nova conta (com um nome qualquer) e façam logoff na conta antiga. logo após, force a parada do Spotify e do Instagram e abra novamente (ou então reinicie o telefone). Vocé verá que além da opção de compartilhar no stories, irá aparecer a foto do seu perfil no cantinho direito da tela inicial, no 5º item ao lado do coração (pelo menos para mim não aparecia antes).

Tem que deixar as duas contas logadas no seu app, ou então o problema volta. Tentei aqui sair da conta nova e deixar só a antiga (principal) logada e o bug voltou. Portanto acredito que seja algum problema no código do sistema. Esses dias somente que foi aparecer para mim a opção de repostar stories em que fui citado. 

PS: Nem sempre funciona, portanto tente ficar logando e deslogando das contas, logo após isso force a parada do spotify e veja se a opção aparece. Geralmente só aparece quando a fotinho do seu perfil também aparece no quinto item da página inicial. Nos testes em que fiz, só funcionou logando nas duas contas ao mesmo tempo.

Hi! I actually had the same problem when I changed my phone. I tried updating my spotify but it doesnt give u an option to share it on IG. What I actually did was I tried looking for some ig stories of some of my friends who shared spotify to theur stories and I clicked the link (which can be seen on the top left corner of the story) and when i did that it led me ofcourse to spotify. Then i went back to my own spotify account and tried looking for option to share it on ig and bam! It shows right away. What i actually thought of it was if in case u changed ur phone or havent updated ur spotify, update it first and try to do the same thing that I did so it will link ur ig to ur spotify and an option will be given. I hope it'll work for everyone else because it worked for me. I tried figuring it out for months before and now it's fixed. Hope this will help you!

[Cpotify]

Don't wait for it boys, they'll not fix it, i am sure they not even reading our replies, thank you dear spotify!!

[Saschaazz]

I have the same problem, with and without premium I still can't see the option of sharing songs to instagram stories, only instagram direct.

My phone is Samsung Galaxy S8

I have the latest versions both of instagram and Spotify and I tried reinstalling them, it did not change anything.

Instagram: version 88.0.0.14.99

Spotify version 8.5.0.735

Guys, stop posting on this topic, because none of the developers are reading the posts! It's impossible that after so many messages with versions, screenshots and so many others explaining in detail the problem they have not yet released any fixes or a solution. So none of them cares about it. They probably have more important things to care about.

It' almost been a year and nothing changed. Is it that hard 😞

[shay_ortiz]

Hi Peter,

It's just puzzling how the option was available a few minutes ago, and I have been posting/sharing Spotify on my Instagram stories in the past but am now unable to, because the "Instagram Stories" option is no longer available when sharing a song directly from Spotify. I have checked both apps and they are both updated. Is this an Android issue?

[14God]

I am having the same problem as the photograph attached, also, yes  I’ve updated both apps. Please help. Thank you!

[misel]

After Apr 15 2019 Instagram update it is working for me now. I'm wondering for how long...

Instagram: 89.0.0.21.101

Spotify: 8.5.1.734

There was no need to reinstall anything, it just started to work after the Instagram update.

[uberniana]

I have been able to share songs to insta stories for more than 6months and now, even if the option is available, the service does not work. I press share to insta story, it takes me to instagram and then nothing. No Story with song. Just plain instagram feed. Why?

I uninstalled both apps and reinstalled them and its still not working.

[14God]

I’m having the exact same problem, have you heard of any resolution to the problem yet? 

[hammunj]

I'm using Xiaomi Mi A2 please update it

please fix it spotify
