Facebook will soon let users play music in profile

Were you once a MySpace user, where your profile played music when you opened it? Facebook announced that you can expect this same feature in its platform soon.

The social media site announced in a blog post yesterday, Oct. 24, that users can pin music to their profile through a new section to be launched.

When the feature is played, users will hear a clip of a song. They will also get to see an accompanying video featuring photos and album art.

Users can also add music in their Facebook Stories. Simply take a photo or video, or select one from your gallery. Tap on the sticker icon and choose the music sticker. However, users can only use a particular clip of the song to be played on their story.

Facebook has not yet announced when the music section in the profile will be made available. Meanwhile, music on Facebook Stories is already available for users to enjoy. JB
