Songs in WhatsApp statuses? Here's how

Putting music on your WhatsApp status can be a bit more of a challenge than on other popular platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. 

Unlike these networks, WhatsApp does not yet have a specific function to add music directly to Status through stickers or other integrated tools. 

But there are some tricks you can use to get around this limitation and share your favorite music with your contacts.

How to add music to WhatsApp status

To add music to your WhatsApp status, you will need an extra tool, as WhatsApp does not offer a direct way to do this. 

It could be a video editor, a function of the music service you use or even recording your cell phone screen while music is playing.
